That seems kind of... sudden.

MS launch their slim model in the middle of E3 with no leaks, no rumors, no nothing... out of thin air...
Sony (sadly) has leaks, rumors, pics, prices... all, months before launch...

its everything but sudden...

Your memory isn't so great. Either that or it's a bit selective.

Just about every major gaming website had an article on the 360 slim prior to its official reveal at E3. There were leaked images and everything.

i do remember the motherboard rumors, but slim was a wild guess by the media and i never saw any photos before the MS conference.
there was hope for the price cut but no evidence anywhere... i think MS did a better job than Sony is doing now... but maybe they want this... rumors are publicity and that is never bad. even bad publicity is good publicity...

A wild guess picked up by numerous sources that turned out to be completely true? I don't think so. Either way your original post was totally wrong.

As for one of the two doing a better job, I think it's a pretty well established fact that at this point Sony is a leaky ship, almost everything gets out. (Although they did manage to keep TLOU a secret, rare in this day and age for Sony.)
