At current rate: PS3.

But there is Halo: Reach on the path... so 360 win after all.

PS. With adjustments this will be change.

What do you mean by current rate?

Likelihood is that PS3 will carry on at current rate, but 360 will drop a little bit further over the next 11 weeks, so on that basis it's a good chance that PS3 will take 11 weeks and 360 12 weeks. Either that or a draw.

I think some of the HW boosts 360 will get in the next 11 weeks, though they won't be huge, will probably mean it ends up a draw.

A 10 million gap between 360 and PS3 in America's, that's huge!

11 weeks? September 14 is Halo: Reach launch... just special/collector editions will boost 360 before this 11 weeks.

I voted for PS3.

Reach won't quite offset the 360's decline to a settled weekly figure, I reckon.

Good stuff, keep it coming guys ^^

testing

I'd give the win to the PS3, but I wouldn't put it past the Arcade and some huge software launches to push the 360 over.

Interesting.

I'd say PS3 BUT the new arcade slim released this week may tip it towards 360 and Halo Reach of course.

But PS3 does have a smaller way to its target.

I'll go with 360 at this point. The sales aren't dropping too badly and I suspect the Arcade launch will increase sales to higher levels than they are now inspite of the gradual drop off we've had up to now.
