360 Beats PS3

I've always read that the 360 was doing terribly and that nobody (in Japan) wants to own one so was rather surprised to hear that the 360 is now selling more units than the PS3 in Japan (source).

Not only did Sony make a mistake with their initial pricing strategy, they also made it tough for developers - I hear from game makers that the PS3 is a pain to develop on. Top games are also taking years to come out. MGS was announced before the PS3 launch and there still isn't any release date in sight. Devil May Cry only just recently got its release date announced (next Jan.)

I only have a handful of games - Ninja Gaiden, Gundam Musou, Resistance and Ridge Racer - kinda sad considering the machine has been out for a year already.

Sony have tried to come back with a new pricing strategy with their new PS3 models but I'm guessing from this re-launch event that Sony is going to have a tough time. How is the 360 doing in your region?

BTW, if you have a 360 then you may want this cover. Figure in this post is Melissa Seraphy.
