Whats was the sales difference YoY for PS3? I'm sure it had an impact, just doesn't seem to be a game changer.

Also, the 360 Slim launched last year in September. Perhaps that has something to do with 360 being down YoY?

It's up about 6% YOY.  I'm not sure how much more you expected.  If it had shipped 4 million that would be the second best calendar Q3 for the entire console generation.  Behind only the Wii in 2008.  As it stands, it is the third best console Q3 of this generation.  The 360 slim launched in the previous quarter, but it certainly affected sales in Q3 last year.

They were bragging at E3 this year that they'd be the number one console worldwide.

Like I said, I expect a sales boost with a price cut, but 6% isn't anything to get worked up about. Not enough to concern MS at the moment it seems.

Nothing wrong with boasting about it, but probably not worth sacrificing profits just to hold that title. Sony appears to be sacrificing profits to get that title.
