Do you predict a tight race between 360 and PS3 next year?

Real quick bit of info. According to simple math..
Since the PS3 US release day...
Xbox360 has sold 11.25 million consoles in the US.
The PS3 has sold 10.93 in the US total.

I would say they are both doing equally well in the US market and are neck in neck if you don't consider the 8 million head start the Xbox360 has had.
This is amazing considering the fumbles that both companies have had with this current console generation.

If we are going to bring up next generation, If both come out at the same time with similar price points and are pretty equal in starting features like this generation, It will be a very close race to first.

Nintendo did great, but I don't think they will do half as good on their next console. I have a feeling it will be a 3-way tie. With the PS4 leading the pack, only due to how much steam the PS3 is getting now.

People are always wanting to bring up the period since the launch of the PS3 and compare sales since then.  However, that is a mistake because the the initial 8 million represents a sizable saturation of the market in the US.
