I'm sure if it is 100k gap they'll be slightly disappointed, but if you compare it to last gen where MS had a 12m+ gap and this gen, sony is continuing to increase the gap on a yearly basis, and WW outselling at a rediculous rate. I dont think they'll be overly concerned.

Fair enough but if true  its the future trend they need to be concerned about. Is it possible that a) that the whole console industry is seeing a decline and b) combined with that.. MS have started to recapture the mindshare in the U.S in the console space -with the cureent gen that is.

I dunno about trends, but wasnt the gap last year 500k? and so far this year its about 300-350k? With 1 month to go, it may be the trend that is pointing slightly down, but its such a small margin, that its not really a trend that Sony would consider worrying about (someone correct me on the gap last year if I am incorrect)
