The 360 is doing its job right.

1. Thus far this year, the ps3 has otusold the 360 by an average of 40k a week, including the recent weeks following the 360's price drops. During August and July, this number averaged even higher, and it was during this time many speculated that this gap would increase dramatically over the holidays, allowing the ps3 to make considerable gains on the 360's LTD this year.

Then the price cuts came, and things obviously changed.

2. The 360's price has gone as low as it feasibly can to spur sales in the EU and Japan. Any sizeable gains from price cuts have already been achieved, and once sales die down form the recent price cuts, the 360 will be just about dead in the water in these territories. All it has left is NA, where the price is already $199. Compare this to the ps3, which is still very expensive in all regions, and has much to be gained from future price cuts. If you think the ps3 will be outselling the 360 by "only" 50k a week next year - or rather, after it's next price drop - you're in for a big surprise.

You are under the assumption that the sales will die down, who says at he $200.00 price cut the sales stay high.  The system is finally at a mass market price

 

The 360 has done a great job this generation against Sony, WII is unstoppable

 

its not an assumption its a fact, every pricecut raises sell but itsa major initial bump then go down little by little.

and thats to every price cut not just the 360.

the ps3 this year have lead ww of 1.5 million ps3 maybe even win 2008 if maintain the parity in christmas.

hell even without a pricecut sony can maintain competing nicely, a pricecut is a sure win though.

 

 

 

Its not a fact until it happens just to be clear!  Second 360 still hold 5.4 million console lead so parity in sales would keep 360 in  the lead
