360 is much cheaper than the PS3 in UK. 360 launched 16 months before the PS3 in the UK. 17 months advantage is a big lead in regards to gaining install base and market exposure and more time for marketing and advertising in the region.
360 has had wo more extra Xmas periods than the PS3 in the UK.
Microsoft puts more time, effort and $$$ into advertising and marketing the 360 in the UK.

Another person that completely doesn't get the point of the thread

360 in the UK against PS3 in comparison to 360 against PS3 in the US.

I think I answered this question pretty well (a post which is, of course, being conveniently ignored).

Why would the 360's strongest country/territory be one where it's not winning and is not even close to the Wii in sales? 

 

I agree with you, 360's dominant country is very likely to be an underestimated one where they simply have xboxes for pirated games as software is expensive and rare in those places. My Malaysian housemate was telling me how no one buys the PS3 there because you can't get pirate games, no one buys real games in those countries. Only problem is that the Wii is equally as pirate-friendly so it may still win over the 360 there.
