There was no price cut this year for the PS3, in fact, like I stated above, it got a $20 price increase in America.  And the 360 didn't dominate the PS3 this holiday season, it slightly outsold it, which is why the PS3 will have a gap 1.3M+ over the 360 for the whole year.  And with the release of one 1st party exclusive next year, its obvious that MS is getting ready for next gen and will probably not push the 360 like you are hoping.  And yes, the 360 will have a price cut next year, but so will the PS3, which will have more of an affect than the 360 one.

@ Psyberius

You may want to look at the numbers, again.  The PS3 is only behind by 2M, not 3M.  And for the past 3 months, the 360 has only won 6 out of 13 weeks, and not by a large margin, hence the huge lead the PS3 has for the entire year.

If I told all you Sony fanboys 10 years ago that Sony would be in last place this gen and losing to the Xbox and the Wii, i'd be the laughing stock of these threads. But you ain't laughing anymore huh? It really puts things into perspective. I mean it took several years and billions of $ for Microsoft to finally get the Xbox off the ground, and now it's finally paying off. And for a well established brand like the Playstation to take last place behind Xbox 360 for 7 years is an incredible feat for Microsoft, and Nintendo too.

a feat for MS yes, but for the mighty Nintendo no. Nintendo was king 3x previous to this so winning is nothing new to them. i'm sure you are speaking in terms of how big PS1-2 was.

but when you put all of Nintendos gen's (handhelds not included) in combined number, Sony and Nintendo prove to be closer to an even playing field.

NES: 60m

Wii: 100m

SNES: 50m

N64: 40m

GC: 21m 

271 consoles sold. 

PS3: 71m

PS2: 160m (estimated since the point it was no longer being tracked by vgc/wikipedia has it at 155m since March of this yr.)

PS1: 105m

336 consoles sold or you can subtract 5m based on wikipediamaking it 331

difference. 65m or 60m based on wikipedia.

the bigger picture here is that, out of the big 3. Nintendo knows victory, although Sony has sold more with less consoles. Nintendo has won 3 of its 5 existing gen's.

the reason the feet in this the 7th gen. is MS alone to own is that they took and shared Sonys market with themwhich wasn't expected.

yea true enough, no one expected Nintendoto win, but no one expected MS to take and control the market Sony once dominated.
