Xbox 360 group product manager Aaron Greenberg told Next-Gen in a phone interview Thursday following the release of March's NPD sales figures, "I think the battle for the core user is sort of over, if you will. We're heading now well beyond 20 million in console sales.
"I feel we've secured that core buyer, and that gives us quite a bit of an advantage versus PS3, which is late to the game and still at a price disadvantage relative to the Xbox."

sorry for the triple comments but...
you mentioned DMC4 and indeed it is selling better on PS3 than 360 but that's because of the Japanese market. 360 just doesn't sell in Japan.
I think that DMC4 is more of an example of power of a third market rather than an example of association to some console brand.
