The X360 sales increase has been the culmination of a decent to good game (Gundam: Operation Troy), and the massive buildup of JRPG news for the X360. ToV was announced, dated, and exclusive to the X360 which gave it a decent jump. Star Ocean 4 was announced as exclusive, and now XIII has been announced.
So with all of this data, the X360 has seen gradual, but strong increases, and is actually TRENDING better. Rather than a one-and-done, it's actually been preforming rather well. It was selling 1,000-2,000 units per week for quite some time, and now it hasn't been below 2,500 for 4 weeks now, and has been above 3,500 for 3 weeks, which is very good for what the X360 has done.
Trends like this suggest that the Xbox 360 will see great sales when ToV launches. I think 10,000+ h/w units that week (2 weeks away) are quite possible
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
