I'm an electronics sales associate and I can personally vouch that we sell 10 times more 360's than PS3's. The major drawback for the PS3's is their lack of backwards compatibility. The 40GB runs $399 and does not play any PS2 games. The 80GB runs $499 and plays about 1/2 the PS2 games (why it won't play the other half is beyond me). With new games running $60 a pop, being able to play the games you already have is a must when you're shelling out $400+ on a new system.
