I don't really consider it a three way war as the Wii went for a totally different audience and it paid off dividends. If you do want to throw it in then yup, it won.
PS3 and 360 went head to head and the 360 won that. I think in sales the PS3 just about outstripped the 360 in the end (mostly due to Japan hating Microsoft) but I still think you can chalk it up as a 360 win. In the console market, brand loyalty is insane. People are absolutely ridiculous about their loyalty to big faceless corporations. If you want an example of that, just wait for the responses I'll get here for saying the 360 won
Don't worry everyone, I'm a Sony fanboy if anything, I promise!
The lead the PS2 had over the Xbox in terms of sales was ridiculous. It wasn't anywhere near close. The 360 absolutely chewed that up and put them on an equal footing for large parts of that generation and I think it was a phenomenal achievement. Of course Microsoft has gone and thrown that all away with its awful Xbox One launch and as such the PS4 has re-established the brand's dominance.
It's also reflected in my own console choices as I had a PS1, PS2, a 360 and now a PS4. I also did get a second hand PS3 late in the console's lifespan and in my own subjective experience I do think the 360 was the superior machine in both accessibility and games.
