Well we wouldnt care about Wii since MS made it clear they are only gunning for Sony.

Metacritic has more 360 games rated 70-90% then PS3. Quantity AND quality over PS3 ftw.

The thing is, you accuse him of deliberately cutting off the latest 360 boost on the graph when it's clearly a false accusation and irrelevant data.  (http://vgchartz.com/hwlaunch.php is clearly a generic graph and available from the main menu; the latest 360 boost is irrelevant for comparing weeks-from-launch sales of the consoles.)

The fact that the PS3 is doing better over time than the 360 may not mean that the PS3 will do equally better overall, since the platforms are not operating in a vacuum but rather acting against and reacting to each other.  The 360 was able to build up steam in an environment without the PS3 or especially the Wii, and the end of the gen is not going to delay itself by a year for the PS3 to "even it out". 

Despite all this, the comparison does illustrate why anyone thinking the PS3 is down for the count ought to think twice.  And your eagerness to jump all over someone making this point says more about you than it does about them. 

Games rated 70 to 90% are average games, so it's just more quantity on ms's part. There can be no fact about which console has the best games, just opinions which I feel free in spreading. Ps3 has the best exclusives, fact :D if the 360 had just a couple more good games I'd pick it up cause it costs next to nothing

Metacritic isn't fact, it's just a compilation of opinions

It would actually be more worthy of a celebration if they were 8 million behind the Wii instead of 8 million ahead of the third place console, most of which of the latter is due to a head start. Since the two have both been on the market, the 360 has only outsold the PS3 by about 3 million.

I've honestly never seen so many people celebrate mediocrity like this.

Did you ever see the movie Rocky? In the end, Rocky didn't win. What was his accomplishment? He went 10 rounds with the best. The movie wasn't celebrating mediocrity, it was celebrating excelling far beyond expectations. And now PS3, which had been deemed this generation's certain victor even before launch is in 3rd place, while the scrappy underdog has cemented a place in front of them. If PS3 was celebrating a small lead, it would be celebrating mediocrity. But for a player like MS, who had to split 30% marketshare with Nintendo last generation, it's a victory.
