All consoles have a failure rate and all consoles have a certain % of people who are disinterested after purchase for whatever reason. In addition to this they all have a product life-cycle. If the Xbox 360 is a year ahead on average then the people purchasing software are going to be a year ahead in terms of growing disinterest in purchasing new titles.

lol wait wha? How the hell did you come up with that theory? :D Growing disinterest for a certain product over a products life cycle is true. But it does not effect the new software. For example, disinterest for xbox360 can be argued as true by some, IF it has reached the maturity stage of the cycle or furthure down....but demand for new games should not be affected by it, simply because they are NEW products that has nothing o do with the other product cycles. Demand for MW2 will diminish as time goes but that has nothing to do with the platforms. That argument is flawed.

If you've already got Madden 2008, are most people really going to go out and buy Madden 2009 the next year? If you've already got a bunch of great titles and are still playing them are you going to be as likely to go out and look for new stuff to play, especially if you can borrow from your friends?

Yes but Madden 2008 or 2009 has nothing to do with the console they are on. Consumers will not buy a product if they do not offer something new, improvements over the prior version (that validates a purchase), or desired (or pushed hard enough to create one by advertsiging). Madden games do not offer enough incentives for the users to buy a newer version. Buy for example UC2 offered a mch different and better experience than UC1 so people buy it. This has nothing to do with the console they are on tho. Two very different product life cycles.
