| -General_Ram- said: i see MS only dominating in 09. Valhalla chip has both CPU and GPU on ONE chip, cost cutting a lot of $$$. This might lead to a $50 price drop, maybe even a 360 Slim, which will cut costs even more. Halo Wars and Halo ODST are Halo games, they will create a buzz and be system sellers. |
I have it on good authority that Valhalla won't hit the market until early 2010. The Arcade 360 is likely costing MS more than a few $, as well. You can't make a console as nice as the 360 for that cheap (yet). MS is willing to pay to regain marketshare from Sony, hence the holiday cuts. I really doubt we'll see a 360 price drop next year, though. MS doesn't want their shareholders to think they're foolish.
