Versus: VGChartz Hardware data for the period 01st Nov 2008 to 06th Dec 2008:
Last year, the PS3 led by a scant 210,000 units in Nov-Dec, but posted a nice 600,000 lead in Jan-Mar. One should expect the margin to be vastly in favor of the X360 in Jan-Mar 2009. I should raise my predictions to a 100,000 unit lead per week, and over 350,000/mo. |
You have to think how many people are going to be willing to spend $400 on a games console come Jan - March?
People feel the pinch around this time on any given year, throw in a recession and people really will be keeping their wallets shut tight.
