If MS were to have a 100 dollar price cut and new cheaper SKu out the door, you can bet the sales would also increase big time. Enough with the SOMG sony is keeping up with much bigger price and no games! Yea well ps3 has also shaved almost 2/3 of its price in 1 year, 360 cut its by 50 bucks and 30 bucks in almost two years. Tells you whos desperate. 2. Even if ps3 is outselling the 360, its barely doing it. With possibly 10k a week outselling 360, do the math to understand how long it will take the ps3 to catch up. Thats right 15 years. Good luck. 3. Black friday, you can bet america will be a huge boost to wii and 360. |
While your points are valid, keep in mind they don't really mean shit in the end. As long as Sony can afford to take the hit, then all that matters is sales. Yes, US sales will more than likely teabag the PS3's compared to the 360, but its undeniable that it's made a massive improvement in all territories. MS should be thinking about doing the same, it's obvious that PS3 is still in the game for 2nd place, and if MS is too complacent they'll have a reversal of the GC-Xbox dynamic in Europe (where GC started off stronger, but a massive price cut and some very nice bundles allowed the Xbox to take the lead there and keep it).
