Xbox 360 has nearly erased a lead ( in the EMEAA ) that the PS3 had slowly built over the last year ( thanks to PS3 slim...) in just 8 short weeks the XB360 has erased that lead in the EMEAA
don't forget that slim didn't just increase the lead but it was under 360 before PS3 SLIM so we don't know what total lead after PS3 SLIM is
and now needs only needs about 40,000 or so units sold to 'break even' in the EMEAA,
but PS3 will also increase it even more this fall plus GT5
in America its lead is increasing even more so. About 2 months ago PS3 was about 4.6 million units behind the XB360 worldwide.. now they are once again ( as of today with these numbers posted today ) 5.4 million units behind Xb360 wordwide.. by the end of the year they should be well over 6 million units ahead
don't be so sure of that as PS3 numbers will be boosted by GT5 and 360 gap per week is coming down every week,it could even be outsold

I was wrong, the lead in europe is around 10-15k units for the PS3, but the fall and holiday season have been typically 360 strongest sales spikes historically, because they release all the big sellers then, Halo has typically been a fall release game and Reach will likely outdo Halo 3. As a halo fan speaking Halo ODST has little relevance ( because of its 5.5 million in sales is lower then other halo games ) ... ODST was not based on Master Cheif ( a genetically engineered super-human) so many fans didn't eat it up... Reach brings us back to the games roots and is actually a Pre-quel going back in time
