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

When was Black Friday in 2007? If it was the week ending Nov 24th, then yes, 360 has outsold PS3 for every Black Friday except 2009.
