At the moment I don't see any big difference in the diversity of the lineups for the 360 and PS3. Both systems seem to be largely focused on FPS, sports, racing and action games. Microsoft has to fund projects of Japanese developers to get some diversity, while Sony gets some different games because they were marketleader for two consecutive generations and 3rd parties assumed it would stay this way.

This advantage for Sony is shrinking due to their sluggish hardware sales, so they soon will be in a similar situation as Microsoft where they have to spend money to motivate 3rd parties to bring some diversity to their library. 

On top of that the 360 and PS3 share the majority of 3rd party games. The 360 has more games due to the 1 year headstart and in the future most games will remain multiplatform, so this advantage of the 360 will be kept intact.

Logically, if the 360 were going to lose to the PS3 it won't be because of the diversity in the lineups. It will be because of the PS3's better brandname in Japan and Europe. Most people in these regions pick up a PS3 over a 360 simply because they are used to play their games on Playstation systems.
