I mean, what kind of moron would buy a PS3 when they know that its successor is just around the corner? |
I don't think most people who buy a PS3/360 now are huge hardcore gamers, or they might not plan on buying a PS4/Nextbox anytime soon.
My PS3 broke a long time ago, and I've held off buying a new one because I expected PS4 to release soon.....and I bought a Wii instead 
. However I've been hearing rumors that PS4 will not be backward compatible with PS3 games, at least not without an $85 attachment.
So, if I didn't have a pile of 360/Wii games to beat, I would have considered buying a PS3, specifically after the PS4 was announced for BC.
Also, I've had a bad experience with Non Nintendo First gen systems. My PS1-PS3 were all first gen, all broke, and my 360.....yea....., but all under warrenty at least, and the last model I got has been solid for the last 2 years. So when I eventually get a PS4, I'll probably wait for a redesign. It's not like the PS3 had that many good games until 2009, so I don't need a PS4 until 2015 or so.
As to the question, I give it 20%. Gears of War might come with a bundle, and that might boost sales enough for 360 to surpass PS3 for a single week. However I bet a NextBox announcement will come soon after a PS4 announcement. Also 360 is down more YoY so...... yea
