I was just looking at the weekly hardware sales charts :

... and It was pointed out to me today that the current units sold of PS3s worlwide are about 18.8 million. Xbox360 hit 18.8 million almost exactly six months ago. So I suppose you can say PS3 sales are only 6 months behind the XBox360, however, PS3 came out more then a year after the XBox360 did.
Does this stand to reason that PS3 has closed the gap in the lead XBox had in sales by half since they have been out? Is it also looking like PS3 will overtake the XBox within a year or two at this rate?
PS3 was outselling XBox for a long while until recently, the last few months, which might be attributed to the XBox price drop (The Drive hack probably helped to). I feel XBox will continue to outsell until probably next year when the PS3 will most likely have it's own big price drop, but do you think XBox will drop price again?. Are the prices going to go any lower then $200 for the next gen systems anytime soon? PS2 still sell for over $100
