The Xbox 360 is failing, face it. Its nearest rival the Wii is completely outpacing it whilst the PS3s gap to the Xbox 360 is much, much, much smaller than the gap from the Wii to 360.

 

I hope you're trolling. I really do. Because there is so many things wrong with that statement.

 

No, he's not. He's stating a truth: the X360 might be the prominent HD console, but it's quickly losing ground to the market leader. The Wii has been steadily increasing it's marketshare and we aren't too far from the tipping point. Soon the HD consoles will be less than half the market and are burdened with huge development costs.

In order to create a Wii game, all you need are SD assets and knowledge of old technology. In order to create a PS360PC game, you need HD assets (which are more expensive to build), knowledge of new technology and code spanning three different platforms. All that trouble just to reach less than half the market.
