Well that is possible but it would be the case of something selling on hype alone .It is factible ,but that turns useless the comparisions about lineups and wich month will be stronger for software of one or the other .That could be the case with the traditional consoles .Example the X360 or the PSP when they churn out a great game they increase sales .The DS ,and maybe the Wii ,are totally different thing ....they can sell tons without games and with one or two no-games as Wii Sports or Nintendogs or Brain Training .Thats true ,but from there trying to extrapolate that the Wii will do better and win over the PS3 because of the lineup or the software ....
Many PS3 titles of the coming months are multiplatform ,thats true .....but so what ?What exclusive titles has the X360 going for it ?And the Wii ? The Playstation 3 at least have Heavenly Sword ,Uncharted Drakes Fortune ,Lair ,Singstar ,MLB The Show ,NInja Gaiden Sigma ,Everybodys Golf 5 and some others ...
Remember that it could be argued that for the first 9-12 months the PS2 was on the market it sold on hype alone; the Dreamcast was less expensive, had prettier games and a much stronger line-up and was still outsold by the PS2. The reason why the PS2 was declared the better system in the end was because its higher sales meant that it would get meant that it would get many more exclusive games and have a better line-up in the end.
The problem with the multi-platform games for the PS3 is that many of these games have been out for (nearly) a year on the XBox 360, the XBox 360 currently has a much better line-up, and the XBox 360 is less expensive so if someone wants to buy a system to play Raibow Six Vegas, Oblivion, or Fear on they probably already own an XBox 360 ...
