If these ratios follow suit into the next 3 weeks then the PS3 is done for in terms of chasing 2nd place. The momentum is well and truely with the 360 now and the PS3 is struggling to keep up to those numbers.
Next week is make or break for the console in my book. It can't sustain losing 200k+ a week. I really now do think next week could potentially see a 300k-500k gap in just US with black friday sales. So if that does happen would mean the 360 will have sold more then the PS3 in 2008 worldwide. Going into next year with Europe selling more 360's then before and Japan selling more 360's then before puts the PS3 in an even worse position then it is now.
People think that soon as the clock hits 12am for the 1st of 09 the PS3 will magically go back to selling more then the 360. It wont happen. It needs something to dent the momentum the 360 is having and a small price cut wont do that, killzone 2 wont do that. The casual market is now what is driving 360 sales as it is dirt cheap. The PS3 cannot get to that market unless it goes as cheap as the 360. That wont happen.
So while these are good numbers and the 360 has done really well i think next week will be better. Selling potentially 300k-600k more worldwide in 1 week over the PS3.
