^ROFL, the reason PS3 is selling more, is because right now PS3 brought its price in line with the 360, before the 360 had price advantage, now it doesn't. So at the moment the PS3 is leading, but its price equality with 360 won't last, Sony already hinted at no price drops next year, MS on the other Hand will price drop the recent specials were trial balloons to see how well price cuts will boost sales, and they worked very well. MS will drop and pick up a lot of the value consumers who owned a PS2 last gen.
As we saw, even cutting the price of the arcade was enough to really boost 360 sales, and that was in only one territory and at only a few retailers, doing a permanent cut on boththe elite and arcade WW, will really ignite 360 sales, by giving the 360 back its price advantage, and moving it more into a mass market price.
