I'm not surprised that the PS3 is doing well, PS2 had a great time in ozland. I'm not sure it's doing better than the 360 or Wii though, and "set to overtake" can be manipulated to mean anything. Last time I checked (which was a month or so ago) 360 enjoyed a healthy lead each month, and Wii was just dominating. I'm guessing the writer thought that a few weeks of higher sales = on track to beat... not true though. Even though the effect of the 1 year lead isn't as big a thing here (in oz), it's still relevant and so long as the 360 still matches the PS3's sales (right now it's beating it), PS3 surpassing the 360 and Wii won't happen any time soon.
Just as a reference:
360's usually go for $550 with the pro pack (including FOrza 2 and Viva)
PS3's for the 40gb is RRP $699 but go for $650
Wii's are $348 (but RRP is $388)
BUT, if you are a bargain shopper, real figures are (which aren't hard to find in regular shops mind you):
360's for $490 approx
PS3's for $590
Wii's are $348 (yeah I know it's the same figure as above, but high demand means they ain't willing to budge)
EDIT: Spelling mistakes. Also, I find it ironic that Leo-J hates the ignorance of nintendo fanboys, while it is his ignorance towards the PS3 (being a sony fanboy) which leads him to be pwned multiple times a day by more knowledgeable members with proper facts.
