Permanently....? Lol. 'Mkay.
It will towards late October but Man Furismo Jive will be the cockblock. I also don't know what on earth LBP 2 and Fable 3 are supposed to do.

all the people thinking reach will boost sales in emeaa are wrong. it would give a 10k-30k boost for its launch week mainly because of the uk. other then that it wont do much. i dont think halo reach is going to move lots of hardware, i might be wrong but if it does its going to do it in the us. halo isnt huge in emeaa, its big in the uk but in continentel europe many other franchises are bigger. the arcade already launched in some countries this week. i dont think its going to give it a boost like it did in the us. europe is settling down, unless the uk gets insane 360 numbers i dont see the 360 passing the ps3 in emeaa. and if kinect is big the big effect will be in the us.

Thats true, but with the difference only at 220k, don't you think that with the 25k weekly sales difference, along with a 20-30k Halo boost, and the Arcade Model being released, that there is no chance the 360 could overtake the PS3 for some period of time? I know there is the MOVE for EMEAA, do you think that will level out sales?
As for Kinect, I dunno if it will offset GT5 in EMEAA, but I think it will offset the Move. Yes it will be more popular in Americas, but in EMEAA I think it will still outperform the Move.

like you said at 25k a week it would reach it in 9 weeks, yes the 20k-30k halo boost would help , but the arcade is going to do much, it already had a release in some countries, also its not the us where its xbox>ps3, in emmeaa its ps3>360(im talking about brand populatiry), the only thing the arcade will do is keep the 360 in the 70s region next week. by the time reach comes the 360 would have been in 60k region and after reach launches the ps3 will be ahead of it with some help from move. even if move wears off fast ps3 was outselling the 360 in emmeaa by 20k weekly before the slim, and after the slim effect wears off it should stay that way. i think that its going to be close but after move launches the slim effect would have wared off and ps3 would be on top again. as for kinect it will move more units then move in emeaa but that doesnt mean that the 360 will pass the ps3 on weekly sales their, your forgetting that the ps3 has gt5 bigger brand recognition and that before kinect launches im sure that the ps3 will be ahead in emeaa weekly sales, kinect alone cant remove that.

Well first of all sales generally pick up in september due to the holidays approaching, but I agree with the that the difference will shrink. I agree with you about GT5 (Top Gear is promoting it a bit now on their website), and I agree with you about the PS3 being the more popular brand in EMEAA.
However I disagree with you on a couple things. After the 360's Slim effect wears off, I don't think the sales difference in EMEAA will be 20k weekly like it used to. I mean PS3 is still receaving boosted sales from it's Slim model (2010 sales are stronger then 2009 sales, and 2009 will have been PS3's peak sales). PS3 was only selling so much better then the 360 in EMEAA because it was the Slim PS3 versus the Clunky 360. Even in Americas, sales for PS3 and 360 only slightly favored 360 because PS3 was Slim and 360 was not.
The other thing I disagree with you on is on how long the 360 will take to phase out. Actually, I'm too tired right now to care, I don't think the Move will impact EMEAA gamers any more or less then Halo (hence a small impact), and I think 360 will hold dominant sales until Kinect/GT5. Then GT5 will probably push EMEAA sales over to PS3 (but not Worldwide), and thats my opinion. However your logic makes sence too, so were going to have to wait and see.
I do still agree that PS3 will outsell the 360 due to brand preference, but I don't think it will happen until at least GT5, and I think after the holidays the difference in sales will be less then it was for 2010.

fixed and agreed.

I don't understand how people can even compare Halo Reach to GT5 when it comes to EMEAA territories. I wouldn't be suprised if GT5 actually managed to outsell Reach by the end of this year there, even with Reach having two months more of sales. Or January at the latest.
