The ps3 will take OTHERS and japan from the Xbox 360 we all know this, now it all depends.

Sony needs these things to WIN THIS GEN:

Price point of $299.99

AAA exclusives graphics power house games:

FF XIII
MGS4
Killzone 2
little big planet
INFamous

Better advertising, and HOME.
This is all sony needs to take the U.S and take the XBOX 360 to 3rd place. PS3 should end up with 20% marketshare by the end of this week sales. Nice jump from 14% in august.

So yes ps3 is gaining ground on the xbox 360, but its not doing it like the wii.

After the 'Amazing Success' of Lair, Heavenly Sword and Uncharted I don't think you should really be hyping Killzone 2, Little Big Planet, Infamous and Home unless you desire to be disapointed (and potentially mocked in the future); these games will (probably) not sell at amazing levels and will (probably) have very little impact on the sales of the PS3.

Beyond that $299 is still too expensive ... Over 75% of sales in the previous generation happened after the console was under $199, and it is reasonable to assume that (at least) 60% of console sales in this generation will occur after the console is under $199.
