May I ask what's changed between December 2007 and September 2008 that would allow the Playstation 3 to close the gap by a large margin? I'd really like to see some Sony fanpeople answers using hard facts & numbers rather than just attack my logic by saying "no it won't" Here's the way I look at it: December 2007 Catalyst Information:
December 2008 Catalyst Information:
Now, with those comparisons, I am not understanding how, without a price drop, Sony is going to be able to compete during Christmas. Could someone care to tell me why and how the average consumer is going to snatch up a $400 gaming system vs. a $200 one, that would put them on an equal (or near equal) selling level?

Well i don't know exactly what has changed in the timeframe dec '07- sept '08 but i can look at the salesnumbers for each year Mr. stickball...
march 07 - dec 07 PS3 sold 2.3 million, XBOX360 sold 4.4 million
jan 08 - sept 08 PS3 sold 2.2 million, XBOX360 sold 2.1 million
So to me it does not seem likely that your 'way of looking at it' is entirely UNBIASED???
Apparantly throughout the entire year the 'average consumer' is picking up this extremely expensive gaming system just about as often as the system that already was a lot cheaper...
