I'm confused. Are you saying that when you align the launches the PS3 has had stronger sales than the XB360 (which actually isn't the case) or that the PS3 has had stronger sales than the XB360 since the PS3's launch?

If you are saying that when you align their launches the PS3 has had stronger sales then IIRC that isn't true. They have fluctuated (a short time in which the PS3 had more units sold, a short time when the 360 had more units sold) but have thus far remained practically equal. Checking the chart, there was a boost in 360 sales that the PS3 is approaching (when launches are aligned on a chart) and I think that the next few months will be the true test of the PS3's sales performance especially considering that the holiday season is coming. If the PS3 dips and doesn't keep pace with the 360 in those aligned months then I fear the SONY will have to do much more than they have done so far to get back in this race. Quite frankly I am still puzzled over their latest clearance pricing move. IMO they should have left the 60 GB HD, taken out the Emotion Engine chip like they wanted, and sold the system at the reduced price. But alas that is not the case.

If you are saying that the PS3 has outsold the 360 in those months (after the 360 was out for so long) then it seems kind of obvious to me that that would be the case, but if the 360 overtakes the PS3 on current sales for much longer then I fear that the PS3 will be further marginalized.
