Could we please stop arguing about this. The facts are that most games are no longer exclusive unless they are first party. That is the only reason remaining to chose a console. ( Yes, I know price too) No one will know the truth for another 15 years. Yes, Sony will probably beat Microsoft when it is all done. This is because the PS3 will probably be in service 5 years after the 360 is dead. But it doesn't really matter. I've said before, 20 million is the magic mark that gaurentees another console. All the consoles this generation have reached that. So why doesn't everyone just be happy with the fact they have 20 million people to play with instead of coming here talking about how their console is better than everyone elses?

"Asked how long Microsoft plans to keep making the Xbox 360, Kim replied: "One day longer than the lifespan of the PlayStation 3"."

 

Why would they do that?  We all know an equal priced PS3 is going to massively outsell the 360.
