@dsolitude How many 360s have been sold at $200 I wonder? All xbox fans claim the Pro model sells more at $300....so obviously $300 is not that high now is it? Why would anyone buy a $300 X360, next to a $300 Blu-ray PS3? You said it yourself, there's no brand loyalty, who cares about ONE game named HALO? And you mentioned COD...guess what? It's on the PS3 and you can play it ONLINE FOR FREE OUT OF THE BOX. I don't think Slimebeast is overpredicting here at all.

wow i dont post much anymore but your freakin right...

When the 360 was selling more then the ps3 sony fans was like "it's because of the arcade". While M$ fans were saying "but the most sold system is the pro". Now that ps3 is the same price M$ fans are saying "but the arcade is 100 cheaper!!!"

i think sony wil have no problems out selling M$ intill they are forced to drop the price even further.

This is simply not the case during the Holidays... during the Christmas Season the Arcade probably doubled the sales of the Pro if not tripled.  I don't see the PS3Slim closing the gap by very much and next year it's likely to go back up when the pent up demand goes away... especially if the economy doesn't get a boost.  Three hundred dollars is still expensive
