Keep in mind there was a time when 360 was outselling the PS3 for more than 14 weeks in a row. Things can change, and before the generation ends it's probably gonna flip back and forth a couple more times.

Keep in mind the 360 had a full year of sales with no competition, and MS blew it, its over for the 360, the PS3 will stay ahead for the rest of the generation. Next target: Nintendo Wii.


And PS3 had to cut it's price $200 in a year to stay competitive. I'm not saying that the 360 WILL come back (though I will say I'm 90% sure the 2 will switch places a few more times), or that 360 will beat the PS3. But it's almost impossible to predict this kind of stuff. Hell, I wouldn't have predicted that a $400 PS3 would be on the market right now. I thought it would be damn near impossible due to cost. But here we are. If Sony could do a desperate move to get back sales, so can MS. It's far from a done deal. And obviously both are getting absolutely eclipsed by the Wii.


 60GB $599 -> $499
20GB $499 -> $399

60GB replaced by 80GB $499
20GB replaced by 40GB $399


The PS3 really has only had a $100 price cut, look at MS they have 4 different SKUs on the market Core, Arcade, Premium, Elite, shoot is there even a difference between the Core and Arcade? Have you looked at MS marketing skeem for Windows? They love to do things confusing, and like stated, this is Sony's playing field, they wrote the book, and they have tricks up their sleeve (Some didn't quite work out very well), Microsoft can't even learn from their own mistakes. It's a done deal, the 360 might pull forward a week or two every once in awhile due to releases, but PS3 is pretty much gauranteed to stay on top.
