Sony Computer Entertainment Europe have since issued the following statement in response to this news article.

“Information discussed within the confines of internal company meetings is confidential and subject to change. We do not have anything to announce at present and we do not comment on rumour and speculation.”

Speaking at the Sony Computer Entertainment Staff Annual Briefing held yesterday in London, SCEE President David Reeves is alleged to have revealed that PS3 is outperforming Xbox 360 in PAL territories.

Tipped off by an anonymous source in attendance at the briefing, D+PAD has been told that “PS3 has a bigger install base than the 360 in PAL territories, and that the install base gap will significantly increase in 2009.” Apparently SCEE is the success story of the SCE divisions, generating more profit than SCEA and SCEJ.
