Microsoft had ZERO competition for an entire year! You think that didn't help it out more than Gears and Halo? Please...

No competition = "I want a next gen system. Lets see, I can pick from a 360, a 360, and a 360. Hm...I'll get a 360!"

No, I don't. What does "I want a next gen system" even mean? People care more about the hardware than the games?

Also, RRoD played a huge role in damaging the 360. It was present due to Microsoft's rush to release the console, and who can say how they would have done without it. That's 1 billion $ they don't need to pay, and no customers scared off from shoddy hardware.


Either way, it's all debatable. I still think the race would have been pretty close, with the 360 keeping the lead for the majority of the time, swinging to the PS3's favor this holiday.
