Numbers That MS Needs To Pull To Tie The PS3 For 2011. And Why I Think It Is Now Impossible.

Wait....your wrong.

All MS said was 15 million for their fiscal year ending in June.
Sony said 15 million for their fiscal year ending in March.

This is where the confusion is at. MS may start to outsell PS3, but I don't think difference will be big in either direction. Regardless MS never said it would outsell PS3 for 2011.

MS could break 15 million for their fiscal year ending in June, if they make a price cut early next year, or make hard drive upgrades which effectively work as a price cut.

Could you provide a link?  It is my understanding, and it seemed to be Seece's as well, that they meant the end of this year and not fiscal year.  Of course, I could be wrong.

Too lazy to look now. Look at whatever links you have that inspired this thread. I'm pretty sure both manufacturers said fiscal year, and for MS that's possible.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't MS sell over 14 million units in its last fiscal year?

Don't know what MS has planned to make a strong start for 2012, but it's possible, and your taking the information in incorrectly.
