The PS3 might not be able to overtake the 360

Good analysis.

The issue that we must ask is "How big will the PS3/X360 gap be, when the Playstation 3 has a chance to overtake the X360 on a weekly basis?"

If the rumors are true that it'll be March before the Playstation 3 gets a price cut - How much bigger is that 6.2 million gap going to become? 7 million? 8 million?

And if the Playstation 3 drops in March - how much could it drop - $50? $100? If $100, the Playstation 3 could take the lead, but by how much?

There are indeed a lot of variables. And very few could argue that the Playstation 3 would have the gas to overcome as much as a 8 million unit gap when the Playstation 3 may even overtake the X360.
