I think with price cut at end of year it will happen. Look with kinect and 360 slim it still couldn't outsell the ps3 this holiday season so microsoft has no more cards left kinect was its last stand and it sold ok but didn't move consoles.

pretty sure it has moved consoles bud, certainly in america, certainly in australia, and im sure our too countries are no the only ones around the world. People are buying the 360 just for kinect.

I think he was implying that PS3 has almost definitivly secured second in EMEAA. Even with the Slim and Kinect, EMEAA region 360 sales are still lower then PS3.
It's just in Americas, the reverse is happening, to a greater extent, thats why last holiday, WW 360 sales were higher then PS3. Kinect does move consoles, especially in UK, US, and Australia. Just not in the bulk of EMEAA and Japan.

Thanks for understanding the 360 sales should've been higher especially when ps3 had a weak holiday line up.

GT5 is big for EMEAA, Fable and Halo appeal more to Western gamers, so in EMEAA PS3 had some pushing power. You also gotta realize EMEAA includes Middle East, Asia, and Africa, all regions generally Sony favoring. UK is the only big card MS has in EMEAA.
Also I think, Sony pulling the PS3 Slim in 2009, really hurt MS's image. Kinect recovers that image a good amount, but in EMEAA it's still not enough.
