The price cut + more games in 09 should do wonders for PS3. Let's see what happens.

Indeed it is.

Absolutely. Price cut will help to sell more. Great games will help more.

But none of these will help to foreclosure Europe from the 360 again. From this point on it is a leveled play field where each console will be evaluated on its value and price. Sony cannot rely anymore on the domination of the brandname and the negative bias against the xbox that crushed the 360 for the first 3 years. That part is gone forever.

Moving forward the Euopean continent market is going to follow the healthier UK and US market dynamics.
