I think for the next 2 or even 3 weeks Xbox 360 will outsell PS3 in the US and possibly EU but after that Sony will be ahead until Gears 2 week where I think the sales will be close again or possibly the 360 could win that week too (remember I say possibly because all 4 of PS3s biggest holiday exclusives will have shipped which could keep PS3 ahead that week as well) but overall WW I think the PS3 will win altogether through Jan 1, 2009.

 

I think you give to much credit to LBP and SOCOM... as for racers Dirt is better than Motostrom by a long shot and Resistance is a better game then SOCOM.

(edit)  I will put in for PS3 getting hammered in number by the Wii and 360 this holiday... None of those games are system sellers and the price isn't where is should be... 360 should post Wii-like numbers this holiday season.

You vastly belittle the PS3's upcoming titles this year. LittleBigPlanet will sell more systems then any upcoming game on 360 by far and Resistance 2 will sell more systems than Gears 2. SOCOM: Confrontation and MotorStorm: Pacific Rift will sell about as many systems as Fable II and Banjo-Kazooie as well. Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm will sell more systems than Naruto: The Broken Bond. Eternal Sonata and Cross Edge will both sell quite a few PS3s in Japan this month as well.

It's quite clear that PS3's upcoming games will sell more systems than the 360's so the only advantage that the 360 has to keep ahead of the PS3 this year is the lower price. However, PS3 will likely be able to match that advantage with the huge increase in sales thanks to the upcoming blu-ray rush as well as the 160GB coming November 1st.
