The Xbox 360 is actually profitable now.

I just went and read the first page of this thread for the first time. Its funny how many people had it figured PS3 would fail and even Blu Ray wouldn't win. I think that the PS3 has really strong legs to stand on as a Blu Ray player and console in one right now. That makes it a very capable piece of technology for consumers to use for many different reasons. It also has a great Linux and homebrew environment for even the most hardcore purchasers. Above all of that the PS3 is still a reliable and quieter console with a great track record for non-failure, a la RROD. If you don't want to spend a butt load of money on a computer, or $500 on a crappy Dell, the PS3 can do all of your web browsing ETC ETC also! How could it fail now? Its software is showing us now just what it needs to be for the console to
remain successful. But if Sony can't keep cranking out blockbuster software, then they could lose the hearts of the Sony fans out there.
They need to make big headlines with big titles:
God Of War Series - Slated
Gran Turismo - out, and another one coming.
MGS4 - On its way
Final Fantasy Series - Coming out, some time..
Killzone - will have to be good and earn its spotlight, its not getting a lot of press so I'm not holding my breath for this one
Resistance 2 - actually looking like a good improvement on the first one.
I think a lot of the above software has most of the sway in how successful this console can be.
