I think next week will be a down week for many of them. The significant releases this week are Resistance 3, Dead Island, and a kinect game (Rise of Nightmares) that might make a few slight ripples if any. So I doubt any of those 3 will move any significant hardware. Im expecting PS3 to drop to around 190,000 WW maybe slightly more. 

Xillia is releasing next week and is looking to have a record breaking opening (for the 'Tales of' series). PS3 sales will likely be over 250k.

Forgot about the Tales of Xillia release in Japan this week. That will give a boost, but to be honest I personally highly doubt PS3 sales will reach 250,000 for next weeks WW sales figures. I don't see any other software releases pushing hardware much in Americas or Europe. Therefore I think sales of PS3s will drop slightly in those regions. The price cut effect I think will ware off just a bit in those regions, but not by a lot. I would say Xillia may boost PS3 sales in Japan, but not by such a huge margin that PS3 sales hit 250,000 world wide. At most I personally think PS3 sales will be around 200,000 next week. Even with Xillia releasing I think WW PS3 sales will be around 195,000 but no more than 200,000. And yes I could be completely wrong, but this is just my own personal intuition.
