Providing if 3 PS3's are sold to 2 X360's sold over the next twelve months then PS3 can be in front of the X360 by July 2009. Assuming PS3 outsells the X360 by 50% from now on.

You have yet to provide any real justification for such stark change in sales trends. Even when Sony had the MGS4 momentum this prediction would have seemed ridiculous. The momentum is on the 360's side at the moment and if the $199/299/399 pricepoint comes to fruition there is no reason to think that will change anytime soon.

Thats the problem.... so far these price cuts are just rumours and screenshots. What if MS doesn't have a price cut this fall? We've been in this boat before, where everyone thought a price cut was coming for the GTA IV launch and it never happened.

True Gebx, but even without the rumored price cut I don't see this happening. I should have been more clear in my thoughts. What I was basically trying to say is that there an miniscule chance of this happening and the rumored price cuts wipe out that small chance all together.
