This thread is, honestly, just not very constructive.
The 360 underachieving is an OPINION, not fact. Why?
Because its completely dependent on ones EXPECTATIONS. Those that expected Sony to dominate this gen with the PS3 would view the PS3 as underachieving. Those that think that whatever system is the cheapest should dominate would think the 360 is underachieving. Those that think that, based on brand recognition, Microsoft is doing extremely well would say that the 360 is overachieving. Those that look at P&L statements would say that Sony and the PS3 are definitely underachieving this gen compared to the others.
The truth is that the Wii is the hot mainstream system this gen. It is dominating sales and thus the leftovers are split between the 360 and PS3, no matter what their price is. PLUS we're sitting in the middle of a recession as well.
I really can't see how this thread has gone on as long as it has (and no, I came in too late to read ALL of it but I read a decent chunk), but ultimately it IS an opinion piece, not fact.
