If they didn't change prices or add new SKUs, I would say the results of the first week of GTAIV sales would tell us how the rest of the year would go. That may sound drastic, but it really is a series that can affect the outcome that much (as we saw when GTA3 released). I believe that the 360 would outsell the PS3 by a slightly greater percentage than it did this year.
However, there are WAY too many unknown variables--it's obvious that MS will drop the price at some point, likely in the next three months, and Sony might too, but the question is how much? And for all the good games we know are coming out next year, let's face it, MS, and to a lesser extent Sony, have been very quiet about next year's lineup.
Way too early to call.
