2012, maybe...

Lol this argument again?

Yes, if they kept selling like this week after week it would take 5 years. (Also they are very supply constrained and 360 isnt)

But here... it would only take another Christmas like they just had to outsell the 360. So in actuality if NATAL fails to catch on sony could possibly over take 360 by this time in 2011.

end of 2011

I stick with my opinion and say 2011. And I say that because I dont believe that the 360 will ever sell a lot more consoles then 2008 (10.8 Mln). But if the current trend sustains the PS3 will peak this year. I assume 20% higher selling numbers this year for PS3 then last year.

2009: 12 Million(+)*1,2= 14.5 Million 360 should be 10.8 (if Natal has no big effect would still be more then 2009).

14.5-10.8= 3.7 Mln.

Ps3 would outsell 360 by 3.7 Mln this year and the gap would be just 2 Mln which would melt to nothing during first 6 months of 2011.

Maybe I am wrong I speculate that natal wont sell more then 500k-750k consoles this year, which would lift the 360 to 10.8 Million and I assume that PS3 will have a price cut of 50 Euro/Dollar in fall and Arc will have a noticeable effect. And that the current sales trend goes on.

The 360 slim will sell very well when released later this year.

It's not going to happen.

They are going to stay close and go back and forth.

Must be before 2012. We all know the world will end then and Im not sure how well either console will sell in Hell.

How long is a piece of string?

Well it had a years lead so not sure :S but have a gut feeling by April next year they will be a tie

it will never happen, as long as 360 has a strong hold on the US, the PS3 will have a hard time catching up. even though PS3 has a greater WW sales, the US is the key.
