The thing is that, PS3 this year is MUCH stronger competitor, then a year ago.
All what M$ got this year, is pricecut in NA + Gears 2 and Fable 2.
Gears 2 probably will sell to same people, who bought x360 for gears. So, not a system seller.
Fable 2 has chances, BUT it might happen, that Fable crowd alread bought x360 for Mass Effect.
Overall, it`s 200$ and 300$ x360 models vs 400$ ps3 model.
The difference is 200$ in first case and only 100$ in second case.
Well, 200$ price is a good for casuals.. but not for gamers.
I wonder, if PS3 line up is only Sony weapon in NA this Christmas... =)
Every 5 seconds on earth one child dies from hunger...
