One thing people keep forgetting about 360's 2008: Japan. 2008 was MS's last great push in that region and while sales did remain relatively low they did improve by a fair bit. 360 was consistently selling around 10k per week and even sold around 30k a couple times. While at the same time PS3 sales were beyond terrible, falling below 10k for several months and being consistently outsold by the 360 in the region for a while. Not to mention that the consoles' holiday sales weren't anything to write home about. The picture has totally changed now, I don't see 360 selling over 10k again this year except possibly once during the holidays. That holiday it sold about 20k multiple times. By contrast once the white PS3 and Move comes out I don't see PS3 selling below 25k for the rest of the year. And the YOY increase is already so huge that even without the slim and FFXIII PS3 will still probably be up YOY in the region. 360 is going to be down by about 150k against both 2008 and 2009 since they sold practically the same both years. Japan, specifically Move and GT5, are going to ensure a PS3 victory this holiday.
