For the next ten weeks, the PlayStation Network will be celebrating exceptional games by discounting selected titles on the PlayStation Store every seven days. This week, Gravity Crash and Everyday Shooter will receive a $5 discount.

Sony Computer Entertainment announced that their PS3 console sales jumped 76 percent compared to the same period last year, marking the highest record sales for the system.

“With the release of the new slimmer and lighter PS3 system combined with an exciting line-up of compelling software titles, as well as with the expansion of new content and services on PlayStation Network, with more than 38 million registered accounts worldwide, the PS3 platform continues to surpass its momentum every year and remains on track to further accelerate the growth of its worldwide installed base into 2010,” said the company.

The NPD results for July are in and, well, it isn't good for anything that isn't either Nintendo or NCAA Football. The only console that sold less than the PS3 in America during July this year was the PS2, whilst the PSP sold 1k more than the PS3 and everything else doing much better. The 360 sold 80k more than the PS3, with the Wii scoring another 50k on top of that and, as usual, the DS got around 280k more than the Wii did.

So the PS3 lost when it comes to hardware, but what about software? Well, there are only three entries in the top 10 games sales that aren't on a Nintendo console, NCAA Football 10 twice (once for PS3 - third in the top ten, once for the 360 - in second) and Fight Night Round 4 for the 360 at number 8. The rest of the board features Nintendo console games, both DS and Wii, with every Wii game there using a mandatory peripheral. Excellent.

Bleak news. You can see the lists after the break.

Are you English? Yes? First, I'd like to congratulate you. Second, I'd like to direct you to play.com, because they are selling LittleBigPlanet for £17.99 in their Monster Sale. You'd better be quick though, because there is a decent chance it'll sell out at such a low price and the Monster Sale ends at the end of this weekend, too. So, hop to it!

Here is the list of PS3 games in the offer, including The Bourne Conspiracy for £9.99, it's more-awesome cousin, Quantum of Solace for £24.99, the outdated and outclassed Fifa 08 for £24.99 and then there's Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, also for £24.99.

You wallet is going to hate me, isn't it?
