It wouldn't be accurate to say that the sky is falling for Microsoft's one and only gaming console, the 360, but it may be time to look at what the company is doing right... and where it's going wrong. The Sony PlayStation 3 is beginning to chip away at the 360's lead in both software and hardware sales in the US, and that system only seems to be picking up steam. In contrast, the 360 doesn't seem to have much real momentum these days.

Sorry but this is a god awful article. The amount of inaccuracies, oversights and heresay in it is ridiculous. It might as well have been written by PS3forums.
For one if completely ignores the PS3 performance in Japan which is demonstrating exactly the same mini-bump and slump behavior they label the Xbox as doing.
The Xbox 360 has many questions to answer but this is just fanboi flame bait, not an intelligent dissection of them.
