$99 for an X-Box 360.... Smart move? Or an act of desperation?

If they wanted so much marketshare,and so many sales like youre saying,why didnt they put the launch price 300$ and gameover?Why drop the price 100$ a year because the production cost got lower,when they could have done that?

Because they would have lost so much per console they'd have literally gone bankrupt at that point.  They would have lost like $800 per console...  It would have definitely been game over, though... for Sony

They are still losing money per console sold.  Accept this as it is a fact.  I'm sorry, bud.

Exactly.They knew they will loose money,they knew the ps 3 wont sell amazingly-like.

They wouldnt have went bankrupt after 130 million Ps2s sold,50 million PSPs sold.

Its clear that Sony only wanted to prepare for the future with Blu ray and the Cell Processor.

If they wanted to win this generation,they wouldnt have put Blu-ray and have a lower price,with no loss.

You think they are stupid?They dominated 2 generations in a row
