What is your opinion of the way Sony has handled the marketing of the PS3??

The only reason the 360 is ahead right now is it's one year head start. Anyone who thinks differently is fooling themselves. Seriously.

Looking at _real_ year over year numbers the PS3 consistently outperforms the 360 on sales by about 10% per year. Considering an even start that would put the PS3 at least 10% over the 360 and this doesn't even take into consideration the perception changes that would have been in place.

No, the greatest mistake Sony made was not getting it together in time to release with the 360 and go head to head since day one. Though likely impossible, it would have made this a lot easier discussion to have in favor of the PS3.
