"I expect the ps3 to overtake the Xbox 360 ww sales come Q2 of 2009"

If hell suddenly freezes over in Q2 of 2009, then this prediction may happen. I, however, do not expect hell to suddenly freeze over. PS3 and 360 sales will be roughly equal through the holiday season. If one of the consoles has an advantage over the other, I imagine the 360 will have an infinitesimal advantage in WW sales.

If hell froze over now with Microsoft in it, then maybe, otherwise.........i just don't think so.  PS3 is 5.4million consoles behind  At 150 000 consoles a week, ignoring holiday sales, sales spikes etc for simplicity sake, it would take 41 weeks for the PS3 to catch up to Xbox's current numbers.  That brings us right to the end of the 2nd quarter.  Now of course PS3 will probably sell more than 150 000 consoles a week because of the holiday boost but i still haven't heard anything about an expected cold spell in hell.
