The HD-DVD add-on for 360's is for films only. There are no plans for games on the HD-DVD format. In that way, 360 users miss out on the much larger storage of next-gen formats. Don't forget that EVERY PS3 is a Blu-ray player, whereas you need to buy the add-on to turn the 360 into a HD-DVD player.

And don't forget, either, that Sony is a Japanese company and works in the traditional Japanese way - each division loathes the others, and doesn't work together. The PlayStation side of Sony is more or less separate from the division that had fun with DRM on music CDs.

PS3 doing poorly? For the past four weeks it has outsold the 360 in every territory, and the trend appears to be continuing. The Wii has outsold the two, and the PS2 outsells all consoles (hand-helds is a different market).
