over 300K



Around the Network

I'll go with 300k.



Hi, this is Vince with Shamwow.

X2.

 

I think Halo 3 will push more systems that people believe... Especially given the handful of AAA+ titles coming this fall, I think Halo 3 will be the trigger that makes a whole lotta people finally jump in. 



I hate trolls.

Systems I currently own:  360, PS3, Wii, DS Lite (2)
Systems I've owned: PS2, PS1, Dreamcast, Saturn, 3DO, Genesis, Gamecube, N64, SNES, NES, GBA, GB, C64, Amiga, Atari 2600 and 5200, Sega Game Gear, Vectrex, Intellivision, Pong.  Yes, Pong.

May be a slight bit over 300K... But, it will be a stretch.



245k for me i think

If the stickball is in I´m in too, could be a little lower though but even 250k would be impressive.



 

 

 


The 360 did 170K in July, so it would need an 85% increase to reach 300K.

According to the data for sales ending August 18th, the 360 saw a 13% increase over the previous week for a total of 59K, and that's with the price drop and Madden. That just goes to show that 1) Madden doesn't move systems, it sells to the userbase(and its sales are actually down from Madden 07 a year ago), and 2) the effect of the price drop wasn't that significant.

200K is doable, maybe even 230K, but 300K is really stretching it.


 

Consoles owned: Saturn, Dreamcast, PS1, PS2, PSP, DS, PS3

I noticed these type of threads are popular over at Box Office Mojo. Like "The Simpsons movie over 200 million club" or whatever. So I thought I'd copy. So anyway, I think 360 will do over 300k in August. Games are hitting, Madden is hitting, the price drop hit, and the one most people aren't noticing..Elite is no longer supply constrained.

 lol

 

anyways, it'll probably be around 260-280k

You honestly think that during Halo month, the 360 will only move 254k and that Halo will only boost sales by 12k the week it releases?

Seriously, share some of what you're smoking.
