I agree about the lack of first party games. It annoying how they paid Rockstar $50 million for GTA4 DLC, when they could have somehow used that money to increase their first party status. They only own about 4 studios, Nintendo own 8, while Sony own 19 or something crazy.
The 360 is dead in Japan, it's not doing that great in Europe despite the price cut and the PS3 is giving it a run for it's money in NA, it's home territory. Even though it's more expensive with almost none of it's system sellers out yet. We know the 360 is gonna lose in sales, the question is "when"?
I came across a similar article earlier today:

It addresses the same points as the one you posted but it's a little more "doom and gloomy".
