Analysts Michael Pachter and Edward Woo from Wedbush Morgan Securitie claim that Xbox 360 will be the most popular 3rd generation console. Not because the PS3 isn’t good enough, but because Sony chooses to focus on the format wars with Toshiba instead of focusing on the PS3.

We’ll be surprised if it becomes a good movie.
