Screw all this crap. This reason the 360 had an excellent launch was because of the games. All of these released within the first two years of releases

 

 

• Gears of War
• Halo 3
• Modern Warfare (not exclusive but was big for 360)
• Bioshock (WAS exclusive)
• Mass Effect
• Perfect Dark Zero
• Forza 2
• Project Gotham 3 and 4
• Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion
• Lost Planet (were both exclusive)
• Dead or Alive 4
• and multiplats like Assassin's creed.
• A bunch of HD prenium PS2 games, like Call of Duty 2, and Test Drive: Unlimited

Then in 2008, GTAIV came out on 360 and officially made the 360 an excellent console.

If sony gets their First party to make games quickly (within the first few years) then MS will be in trouble. Imagine if Sony releases GT6/7 as a launch title and has a huge lineup of games for it on launch. (And by huge, I mean similar to 2011).

It also depends on the Price difference, but to a lessor extant

Exactly, I agree, and haven't you noticed that PS3's software lineup got a lot better in 2009, when it saw it's strongest year in sales? 2010 was pretty awesome for the PS3 as well in the spring, but now that MS has better exclusives for the fall, 360 is in the lead again.

 Ms also had a really strong 2008.

It's not all software, I know, I'm just sayin. Price, and software weight equally when determining which new console to buy.
