Has it gone unnoticed that, not only has a 360 SKU dropped in price lately (something is pushing sales up), but that, just like last year, the release of major sports franchises (and upcoming American Football season in the USA) has coincided with the increase in 360 sales?

The 360 has, many times, been heralded as the best platform for these franchises (although the PS3 versions may finally catch up this year, as far as the reviews are concerned). Do sports titles move consoles, or is it just coincidence... several years running?

Is there an associated hike in HDTV sales this time of year (in the US) as well?  New TV season, Football season, etc.?
