Lets see, the 360 has larger userbase.
But a shrinking lead (with the exception of the last two weeks) so if we are talking about "momentum" this speaks for the PS3.
The PS3's biggest remaining exclusive launched and like all the other big PS3 exclusives the sales spiked and came back to earth.
The PS3's biggest remaining THIRD-PARTY exclusive launched. Gran Turismo 5 is arguably its biggest exclusive.
The biggest remaining exclusive for the PS3 was announced for 360.
The biggest remaining third-party exclusive that has its largest market in Japan was announced for 360 outside of Japan. Cool.
The biggest and most popular JRPG makers, Square Enix and Namco, are favoring the 360 over the PS3 when it comes to exclusive content.
A very expensive privilege for MS I am sure. Which doesn't change the fact that the 360 has a 650k userbase in Japan so it effectively doesn't exist on that island. BTW the PS3 has 2.3m sold in Japan or almost four times as much.
