You have to have a more desirable expensive   No really desirable. product to generate more revenue with less units sold , it's as simple as that.

Fix'd ;)

 

 

If you were comparing items that sold in there 10's - 100's then you might have a point , but we're looking at mass market products , 1. you can't generate more revenue than your closest competitor simply by making your console more expensive , doing that will almost certainly kill your sales unless the consumer feels the product justifies the price.

2.  Guess how well the 360 would perform at the PS3's current price point or vice versa.

 

1.  You mean like exactly as it is now?  PS3 sales being destroyed because of their expensive price.

2.  I'm tired of people saying this.  If the 360 really did cost that much, it would have to be justified.  Meaning the 360 would have many more features and additives, thus STILL making it more appealing than the PS3.  Sheesh, do people ever think things all the way through, or do they just take one fanboy's words for granted and start spouting it elsewhere?

 

1. My point wasn't that the PS3 was performing better than the 360 , my point was there is still more desire for the PS3 than there is the 360 . The PS3 would perform far better at an equal price point , that can't be disputed.

2. Are you responding to my point or pulling stuff outa your arse ? . The 360's is highly dependant on it's predatory price point for it's huge sales , the further you push the price up the bigger the sales drop off you'll witness . For most of this year the PS3 was "destroying" the 360 with a much higher price point but it was combination of the 360 price cut (bringing it in the price range of the PS2/PSP) and the ecnomic situation which played to the PS3's disadvantage.

It can't be argued in anyway that the PS3 is outperforming the 360 in any tangiable way but what I am trying to demonstrate is the competetivness of the PS3 and it's sales potential ,the 360 has the advantage for now but it wouldn't take much more than a price cut to eat that lead away (obviously a price cut would have serious implications for Sony and is looking very unlikely until spring.)

 

 

lol, can I nominate that for fanboy sentence of the year?

It really boggles me that people actually have the idea that MS is cheating here, like it's a game. It's business and MS is doing it better than Sony.
