The only real decision the Axis could have made differently that would have turned the war was if Hitler didnt betray Stalin.  

I'd go one further and say if Hitler didn't try to attack Russia during one of the coldest winters of it's time. The Russians had a massive advantage there. Had it been a different season, the Nazis could have very well beat Russia, and in sequence, Hitler would not have cancelled his battle plans for the invasion of Britain (which he had to cancel to keep up the offense against the Russians, I believe)

America would have had a lot more difficult time with just the ANZACs and the Canadians helping them liberate Europe, especially with the Japanese keeping the majority of the ANZACs busy in the Pacific.

The Battle of Britain took place before the major strides into Russia, if I remember correctly.

Hitler lost to the RAF, and had to turn to the USSR sooner than he hoped to keep his economy ticking.

And OT - The Soviet Union does not get as much credit for WW2 as the USA/UK in the Western World, even thought it destroyed the vast majority of the Wehrmacht. I think that's a bigger issue.
