i think PC sales will dominate both, but ps3 and 360 being close to 1:1

I doubt PC sales will dominate. I expect 360 will outsell PS3 version by a fair amount. Fallout 3 was a good example, and though I realize it had exclusive DLC, part of it just had to do with userbase appeal

Bioware has a deeper history with Xbox, and PC-like titles tend to do better on 360, historically. Like Onslaught mentioned, Fallout 3 is a good example. Plus it's likely that many pre-orders went to 360 already, based on the announced delay..

1:1 would be a huge shock.. not gonna happen (IMO)..

It doesn't matter though, Me and James (the definitive people on the planet) are buying the PS3 version.

My steelbook will look so pretty with the PS3 box/case thing though.

not even 3-2 for the bigger name titles.
I think Borderlands is currently pulling 2-1 for the 360.

But that couldn't have anythiing to do with a couple of key PS3 titles pulling any volume. <cough Uncharted2, Demon's Souls cough>

Oh, and Bioware just announced same date delivery for all platforms.

If that is true, its because it released right after the superior infamous.(85 vs 79 on metacritic)

Source? Since no place has even hinted at sales.

Yeah, Prototype was the only one I could think of off the top of my head. You're right, many PS3 owners may have opted for inFamous.

It's hard to say, there are many, many cases where we get the NPD number for a 360 game, but not the PS3 version, as NPD only releases the top 20.

The armor for Mass Effect 2 could sway dual owners over to the 360 side. It will be interesting to see what the numbers are in the end.

It won't sway me, assuming ME2 is available on both platforms. Despite me playing ME on my 360, I will move to the PS3 for ME2. The trophies, they compel me

i think it's the fake hardware aspect of it all, no one could ever display an achievement on their mantle

But, but, but Xbox has cheevos...

In other news, though, you won't be able to carry over your old save game from ME1

Yeah, this is the part that bothers me a little bit, but I'll get over it while I'm placing my fake trophies on my fake mantle.
