| Asriel said: Same tired old arguments. List of future games, price tag, 360's 1 year headstart, "keeping pace" all used to explain why a machine that had a 1/3 failure rate at launch and is supposedly inferior in terms of games and hardware (and apparently online services too) is still ahead, worldwide. I do not understand why people need to be so defensive about their console of choice. I also lost all respect for the author with his little P.S. that just had to attack 360 fans. Will these poorly conceived, hyper defensive rants ever end? I don't remember them appearing with such alarming frequency during the last generation. |
I don't agree with what the OP is saying for the most part but, those arguments are tired mostly because they're legitimate valid points. In terms of how long both consoles have been on the market side by side you see the 8 million gap irrelevant as it just shows that a year head start gives bragging rights for the 360 yet still lost terribly to the Wii. Alterego-X summed it up perfectly, both consoles aren't doing that great this gen. It's like saying the Xbox original is dominating because it's beating the Gamecube yet is 90 or so million consoles behind the Ps2.
