After this week the PS3 lead will be under 800K. Each week in Americas the difference between the PS3 and the 360 grows and far more than what happens elsewhere. Week of Dec 3rd the 360 gained 91K, week of Dec 10th it looks like it will gain 165K.  Last year during those same weeks the 360 gained 45K and 75K respectively.  The following two weeks last year the 360 gained 163K and 182K.  At the same rate of growth this year the 360 would gain enough to be just about tied at the end of Christmas week.  It will come down to New Years week and the special deals available for the 360 and the PS3 that week.  I fully expect MS to try and go out the year with a huge bang.

The pace of sales acceleration in the Americas is far greater. Between week after Black Friday week and Christmas week last year sales in Americas basically doubled. The rest of the world about 25% growth. This favors the 360 greatly.

I think you didn't understand well. PS3 is 1m ahead (rounded, don't know the exact number) before Europe and Japan are taken into consideration. This weeks USA and UK numbers have already been added, therefore closing the gap. So when all numbers are in the gap should be 1.1-1.2m, not 800k.

The gap now is 1 million (11.3 to 10.3) without this week numbers... so he expected 360 to outsell PS3 by 200k this week (I guess 120k).

god i hope he doesn't expect that! so were those adjustments made from the rounded numbers (9000/1,700,000), or less rounded figures?
