It will pass it eventually, but it's amazing to see how things have changed.
July 2008: Will the PS3 reach 50 million before the 360? Everybody says yes.
December 2008: Will the PS3 pass the 360? Everybody says no. Because of a few months of 360 victory.
Whoever second place ends up being, it will be very close indeed. I still believe it can be Sony, because the PS2 didn't start selling amazingly until 2003. 2003-2000 = 2009-2006.
The PS3 will beat the 360 next year, not least because of Gran Turismo 5. All of the Gran Turismo games have sold better than Halo, so GT will give a Halo-sized boost. This will shorten the gap to around 3 million, and it won't be too far to go from there.
