So, I know it's impossible to know exactly, but what would the gap between X360 and PS3 be at the moment, more or less?

according to neogaf there is a difference of 4.6M (PS3+PS2).  I think that at most 1M would be PS2; so if the PS3 this year so far has surpassed the 360 by 3.6M, I would say that they are officially second in the console war.

PS2 did over 1m last quarter alone, it's selling better than you may think.

We know this because Sony said last quarter that PS3 was down YoY. PS3 did 1.8 last year's Q1, so if we substract a max 1.79m from the 2.8m PS2+PS3 did last quarter, the result is at least 1.01m PS2s sold.

interesting.  Maybe instead of 1M it is 1.6M? lol;  the remaining units would still take the PS3 ahead I think.   Is there a way to see the cumulative shipments of the PS3 and 360 since launch? I am wondering how many units they have shipped.     Based on that I think we would have a better idea of which is second.   I know that what matters are units sold to customers; but I dont think stores would buy more consoles if they dont sell them.
