Its actually not doing as bad as one might think for a $600 machine. That is to say, if you align the launches of the PS3/360, the PS3 is actually doing marginally better than the 360 was at the same time period, meaning everything up to this point can be attributed only to the head start
North America
1 PS3 Nov 06 220,500 220,500 ------X360 Nov 05 357,250 357,250
2 PS3 Dec 06 533,250 753,750 ------X360 Dec 05 303,500 660,750
3 PS3 Jan 07 273,000 1,026,750-----X360 Jan 06 269,000 929,750
4 PS3 Feb 07 133,750 1,160,500--X360 Feb 06 187,250 1,117,000
Japan pushes the equation in favor of PS3.
