MS obviously copied Sony with the early release but that alone wont do it.
Sony kept a top selling game that was SUPPOSE to be multi-platform exclusive to them.
(GTA)and MS isn't doing this with the X360. Sure it's taking exclusives away but not taking
them and becoming exclusive to the X360. Sony did an annoying thing to us Lems last gen by taking GTA3,VC, and SA and making them time exclusive for 2 and a half years. MS seems to only care about getting back in the black and out of the red and wont win this gen by thinking of profits. They need to buy their way to 1st place.They will have to spend almost as much this gen as they did last gen. The PS3 sales are just barely behind the X360s in NA and there's nothing but future titles to look forward to for the most part.They should make a contract to exclusive
rights to MGS4 and kill Sony off this gen and they'll see massive profits next-gen cause Sony will be dead.If they lose NA then you KNOW it's over for the X360's #1 dreams.

That was the least important thing I didn't even say.

Well I think they already spent a lot last gen and they got a following, now that they have a following, they don't need to spend as much to compete.

Xbox 360 has been out for a year, demand for a 1 year old console shouldn't be more than one that's just released. But then again...the PS3 is $600.

It's apparent to me that the TC isn't really a lemming at all. Actual 360-PS3 comparison would be more like

360-10 million

PS3-almost 2 million

that's the real figure we're dealing with.
