The sales jump is nice and all, but I'm not sure it's "Sony has won" yet. It also doesn't mean that Sony is back in the game. If anything, it shows how hard they are struggling. The 360 has only had one price cut of $50 and 2 models (one of which was for Halo). The Wii has had neither. But Sony has dropped their price $100-$200 and are still struggling. Sales are starting to creep back down, so Sony has to find another way for people to buy their console.

It is a vicious cycle. Nintendo and Microsoft have the ball in their court since they have had good sales overall with out having to do much to their consoles. Sony, on the other hand, had had to do lots of models and price cuts to be able to meet 6million world wide, about half of what 2nd place has done. This shows that interest has waned and that this short spurt in sales will be short lived.
