Xbox 360 v PS3
Here we have three charts representative of the three main regions as recorded by VGChartz, and a global chart which brings all of the data together. The line on each graph represents the gap in the install base in millions (sales through to consumers), and the title indicates which console is in the lead in the particular region covered.
Americas
360 Lead is 9,111,029
Japan
PS3 Lead is 3,566,607
Others (Europe, Asia, Africa, Australasia

Reach won't cause that big of a bump for the 360.
There has already been Halo 3, Halo Wars and Halo 3: ODST. Reach will be the fourth Halo game on the 360.
While I will say that it will help the 360 and it will boost sales a little.
But the price drop this year will be much better at moving hardware than the 4th Halo game on the platform.
Europe is such a weird graph right now. Everything else looks normal. =P
i c the gap being less than 3.7 wen we enter 2011 if its still in the 4-5m range than ill b shocked
those who say lower than 3.7 should note that reach will cause a sales bump and 360 should be gettin price cuts i dont see ps3 gettin any so sales should be pretty close to each other form sep-dec

What? When PS3 was launching I specifically heard MS reps touting "PS3 is just launching and we have 10 million units out there as a headstart, we're feeling very good about that".
The gap has decreased, slowly though.
so 360's gap never actulally changed mych since launch !!! around 5.5 mill when PS3 was out and now 39 months later , 5.7 mill .

Nope, la verdad con el lanzamiento de Ps3 slim la PS3 acorto un poco de ditancia, pero se ha ido manteniendo igual en los ultimos meses! La ventaja continua para 360!
Well, I think this year is gonna be very interesting! I mean, w mayor games such Mario, Zelda and Metroid from Nintendo, and the launches of Natal and Ps3 new controller this is gonna really hard to predict! hehe! Btw, pretty nice job! =D
thanks kowen, keep it up
ps3 second europe
no mientan si la ps3 ya ha superado a la xbox 360 en EUROPA la ps3 esta en segundo lugar en EUROPA.
So, after 3 years, X360 retained the 5.xM units lead.
Nice work Kowenicki keep it up

Guess the "fight" is now keeping / gaining control in Others and increasing / steadying the gap in US for Sony / MS
