Uh...if you only look at FPS games sure. PS3 is the preferred choice for football games, racing games, fighting games, JRPG's and more. You can't just say 360 is the preferred choice. It all depends on the genre

Pretty sure Madden sells better on 360 every year. Racing 3rd party games are about dead even, with a slight edge to 360 personally. Fighting ill give you that.

Jrpgs well aside from Final Fantasy, games like Talkes of Vesperia and Eternal Sonata sold better on 360. They were timed exclusive thus not fair to PS3 but hey, who says gaming industry is fair? :P

Either way, those are very few genres. Its widely known that on the whole 360 is preferred for multiplats. No use arguing. 

Not to butt in, but there are a few errors here. He's right in regards to sales of racing games (just look up the DiRT series and Need For Speed titles - they sell better on PS3), ToV for PS3 is only available in Japan AFAIK, and Eternal Sonata actually sold more on PS3 (data available right here on the site).

Madden does still sell higher on 360, but I wouldn't necessarily call either "the preferred 3rd party console of choice". During the 2007-2009 period, I would have easily consiered the victor there the 360, but times are a bit different now. Each has their own advantages depending on the genre.

I don't completely agree. From the numbers I remember in the charts, the multiplats generally are consistently higher in sales on the 360.
