I don't know. If the PS3/360 ends up winning the year by 100k or less, then it would fall under "statistical tie" territory. A victory by such a miniscule number would be nothing to brag about (imo). If anything, I still see the 360 ahead of PS3 worldwide (overall) by the time the next Microsoft/Sony systems come around in 2013/2014.

It shouldn't be just by 100K.  The 360 will probably outsell the PS3 by ~250K-300K next week, but the PS3 will probably outsell the 360 by ~80K or so the final week.  I would guess the gap is going to end up ~350K-400K in the PS3's favor.  Then, there's always adjustments that will be made around the end of Jan-beginning of Feb.

Couple of days ago the adjustments for November and December 2010 were researched and discussed in the threads. Came down to PS3 being adjusted up a total of 3700 units and 360 adjusted down 88000 units. The adjustment down for the 360 was entirely based on the last week of the year and due to shortages. For all other weeks in November and December the 360 was adjusted up  a total of 100,000, but last week was adjusted down 188,000 units.
