Historically 360 boosts have been short lived.
So we should wait and see. America/Kinect should keep the 360 ahead of the PS3 until Sony's next price cut. Basically, no chance of PS3 outselling 360 *this generation* now in my opinion.

yeah that boost in 2008 didn't last very long.... I think it was only about 10 months.

More like four.

Look at 2008 vs 2009 similar months.
I suppose it could still be considered a boost if numbers don't rise, but are prevented from going lower?
|
I'll split the difference with you... 7 months
|
Even though the graphs based on VGC numbers basically show 4?
Even still, 7 months (4 actually) is a short boost for going to such a low price point. The PS3 has had a longer, better boost in going to $299.
PS3 boosts are bigger up to now, that's a fact. Kinect may be a different story though for thr 360.

have you looked a PS3 2010 v 2008?
|
Nope. I'm guessing 2008 was higher so far? By how much?
I suppose though that each boost for any console is combatting the losing of consumer interest as the product's age increases.
I'd still stick by my point that PS3 boosts have been better, especially considering how in comparison it's still very expensive.
If you look at your recent gap charts (WW 360 lead) you can see that the PS3 takes more out of that lead in a boost than the 360 increases it in a boost.
