4 weeks of beating PS3 in sales in America.

1 week of beating PS3 (maybe) WW.

Back to normal next week.

its a much needed boost, short lived but it will keep the 360 ahead of the ps3 in NA for a couple months.

I think it will last 2-3 weeks including this week. Then its going to sell around 65k a week in NA.

It might outsell 360 this week WW (although I wouldn't expect it), then it's back to normal

its weeks like this that make me genuinely beleive the 360 will stay above ps3 sales till 2011, and by that time the next xbox will be just around the corner, also remember that microsoft KNOW when the right time will be to drop the 360 to $199, they said themselves they have a rough date pencilled in for this to happen..... hence the ps3 aint catching up to 360 anytime soon.... BELIEVE

You know that MS doesn't really care if they're 2nd or 3rd? They just want to make a profit, and a price cut doesn't usually help.

What it proves is there is still an appetite for the 360. Thats all that matters.

If the price is right and supply is right at christmas... then the 360 will outsell the PS3 in the states.... and that will be very significant in the long run.

I'm sorry but 100k a week after a major pricecut is hardly an appitite.

If we are to go by all the negativity for 360s on this forum, I am surprised the 360 sells more than 15 consoles a week. It must be offering something to counter all the failings of M$ and their failed box.
