They are just low level people. Tim is the next greatest member to Brett.

Tease.

Remember, we had tons of doomed thread 2008 for the 360 before they to drop their price, the sale surge wasn't by accident.

And again, a price drop is all the ps3 needs.

I would love to know the breakdown on the Xbox 360 sales by pricepoint.

(I would say the same for the Sony but the 40G unit seems to be ubiquitous).

Mike from Morgantown

Average sale price is $290 according to pachter, so pretty firm majority Premiums followed by Arcades and those are trailed by Elite units.

Given that both Lego Indiana Jones and Kung Fu Panda have sold over 2.5M copies and are the current Arcade pack-ins, it seems that a lot of them may have moved off store shelves -- at least at some point.

I am Mario.

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

The SKU balance is different during the year than in the holidays. You have a larger proportion of people who are price/value concious during the holidays so for those 10 weeks the SKU balance shifts quite substantially away from the Premium and Towards the Arcade. Note the relative % difference between the Xbox 360/PS3 during the holidays and the Xbox 360 and PS3 now during the year. During the year its $299 vs $399, at the end of the year its more $199 vs $399. Does that make sense to you as a brief explanation?

Tease.

Good job 360. But the other consoles really arnt doing too bad considering their Price and circumstances last year

I mostly play RTS and Moba style games now adays as well as ALOT of benchmarking. I do play other games however such as the witcher 3 and Crysis 3, and recently Ashes of the Singularity. I love gaming on the cutting edge and refuse to accept any compromises. Proud member of the Glorious PC Gaming Master Race. Long Live SHIO!!!!
