Like I've said it could very well be closer to 9 million before the PS3 sees a price drop, and that is massive damage.

And what's the gap between the PS3 and the Wii? 26 million and change? Nice deflection.

@ Lord N: Distant second? The 360 just outsold its predecessor and is still going strong? MS did what it wanted - and helped dethrone the mighty Sony. So what if MS finishes second behind the Wii. The Wii isn't its comp directly - MS has always been focused on Sony and the PS3.

You have a source for where MS is losing money? According to this site, MS is making a profit with the 360, even with paycuts.

Hit me back with your updated info and we'll talk.

Xbox 360 already profitable, and compare to wii and PS3, xbox have very profitable xbox live since beginning of xbox 360.

also xbox have very good software sales even after end of year holiday

wii have very good software trend 3 month before end of the year, but after that wii software sales are just average usuallly.

people sometimes forget that xbox live is a big plus for ms, and it is very good source revenue stream for MS, where Nintendo and PS3 don't have.
