@ail - fair points. I remember when I visited Ireland in 2006, it was a rough go for my money's worth. We didn't estimate the exchange difference, so our $1,000 US was like $700. It sucked. LOL
Tho I would disagree that not all HW slowdowns affect SW. For example, take a core game, like MGS4 - the HW push was fairly small compared to ones like Halo. Yet, the game sold very well all the same. My point is, some SW will still sell strongly, it just might be a game catered to people who already own the HW - aka not a system pusher.
