2011

now Nov 5th 2011 is basically already confirmed to be taken by ps3

Nov 12th will be dominated by 360 due to MW3 but im not sure if it will be as big of a difference between ps3 and 360 like when black ops released because 360 was already ahead by a little less than 50k the previous week due to 360 slim+ $500 MILL advertised Kinect launch

Nov 19th should still be taken by 360 riding the small MW3 wave

but im not sure about the other 6 weeks because 360 does not have a slim 360 this year, no price cut (YET but it's just about too late for 1 to make a difference now), no $500 mill launch of kinect like last year and no new big kinect games to do anything relevant for it this holiday season(aka kinect wont be as big as it was last year)

but i guess we will have to see what happens

EDIT: idk how to do those little charts and i also did not read through the whole thread so sorry ahead of time if somebody already compared holiday 2010 to 2011

Since were reviewing, here's a bigger picture

 

Period PS3 Xbox360 Lead (PS3) Lead (X360)
Jan 3rd 2010 - Oct 30th 2010 8,888,835 7,301,151 1,587,684
Oct 31st 2010 - Jan 1 2011 5,502,536 6,305,487 802,951
Total 2010 14,391,371 13,606,638 784,733
Jan 2nd 2011 - Oct 29th 2011 8,778,992 7,242,745 1,536,247

Notice the similarities? History may very well repeat itself
