Umm..Microsoft's price cut wouldn't effect to Sony at all (well Ps3 maybe 5-10k hw)..It would just boost Xbox 360.


Well said! sad to see some xbox users turn into the usual Ninty users who run around screaming oooh we have great sales this week the competition is the doomzed nowz omgz, funny stuff

anywho good for Sony, they are slowly but surely turning things around

I assume that was directed at me?  I am a user of all three current generation consoles actually.

It is naive to think that the Xbox 360 has no effect on the PS3 and vica versa.  The more sales one has proportionate to the other, the easier it is for that console to secure exclusives in the future, something that is especially critical with their new motion controls.

The PS3/360 install bases are so comparable and will stay that way. Third party exclusives are dead.

As for motion exclusives, we don't know how Move and Kinect are going to perform yet. Regardless, I expect most publishers will aim to cater to both as much as possible, since the install base for a peripheral accessory on either console is never going to be particularly huge on its own. They need to provide to the two platforms combined if they want to ensure profitability.
