I would say the main turning point on the Eastern Front actually came when Hitler's armies were at the gates of Moscow, but decided not to take it, and divert south towards Stalingrad and the Caucasus oilfields instead. This gave the Russians time to get their act together and counter-attack by the time winter came.

While the allies were running back and forth across North Africa, the USSR had almost-single-handedly pushed the Wehrmacht back, to the point where it was in full retreat by D-day.
