Great job Ms, Xbox 360 will get a major boost this holiday, as deserved.

Actually, it will barely give a boost.

Hey just like the slim. Both will do great but next year both will reach its peak.

It will barely boost because, if anyone wanted a 360, they would have already bought the $199 arcade, most likely.

Never said it wouldn't boost, it will but barely, not a huge difference.

The slim will have a higher boost, because think of it.. the reality, people would look at the PS3 and say "thats too much for me", and buy a 360.

But now, the tables have turned, and the prices are the same (as the elite).. IN MY OPINION you get more out of a $299 PS3 than a $299 xbox 360 elite, its my opinion so don't jump all over me for it!
