1. 360 lost its lead to Wii.

2.360 never did a comeback because it was became 2nd and always had signs of the PS3 passing it. PS3 has possibility of getting very close to Wii.

3. 360 comeback is irrelevant to PS3 comeback.

1. PS3 is still in 3rd place.

2. PS3 never made a comeback; it just continued to sell better than the competition for the better part of the year (excluding Wii sales)

1. It went from a faraway 3rd place, to a close 3rd place. And possibly a close 2nd place. Marketshare terms: went from 22% to 30%. Could go to 33% assuming generous sales of 360.

2.I am of course including Wii as Wii was its main competitor for the generation. Wii was the first console to dethrone a PS home console from 1st place. Excluding Wii is like excluding PS2 and comparing gamecube and Xbox.

It was only a far away 3rd because it launched later than X360, but already from the get go it was closing that gap, and continued to do so - that's not making a come back. A comeback is: a return to being popular or fashionable - and since PS3 never WENT OUT of fashion, and never became UNpopular it can't make a comeback. There wasn't anything to make a comeback from.
