I think Black Friday will be pro 360 because Black Friday is a US specific sales event, and in the US 360 typically outsells PS3 on a given week 2:1. It's less in the holidays, but 360 is always more favored, and if you look back at BF data, 360 always got a bigger boost (I think).

Nope, in 2009 PS3 sold way more in Americas on BF. That's also the same year it got a price cut, just like it did this year.

That's also the year of the Slim, and the turning point for PS3 sales. That price cut was $100, which was more dramatic because it made PS3 affordable. What about other Black Fridays?

How about that? 360 outsold the PS3 by 1M back in 2008 in just 5 weeks! Of course the price then was still up there in the sky plus no slim. Interesting...very interesting
