Also, the idea that the XBO is a lost cause "because PS4 domination" or whatever is a claim without basis in reality. The PS2 was unquestionably more dominant than the PS4 is, yet two of the three price cuts to the Xbox had a significant effect on sales. This generation is much closer than the sixth, and while the PS4 has had a commanding lead since it was reduced to $350, there is no reason to assume that the XBO cannot follow in the footsteps of its predecessors and end up a late bloomer. Shrink it down, give it an attractive price (no more than $300, preferably $250), and it should start to move more systems. And FWIW, compared to previous Xbox systems, the XBO isn't doing horribly, though last month was definitely a very bad mont |
Here is my ressoning as to why i say the XB1 is a lost cause.
If you look at your late bloomer OXB theory, you will notice that when MS was "late blooming" at the time sony had already played all their cards. There were no substantial price drios to do anymore.
Now, sony can match anything MS does price wise if they want to. The PS4 is currently more exowmsive than the XB1 nit cause its costlier to build but because the demand is there. If MS drops to $250, sony can match them..... then what?
