World update:
1) PS3 has now outsold 360 by over 2M since the slim launch.
2) The 360 price-cut performed better than the PS3 price-cut in every category again this week. Next week is a different story, though, as the Japan FFXIII launch (>245k PS3 units according to Famitsu) will push PS3 2009 sales well over the 360's 872k from last year.
