If 2010 turns out to be the 360´s peak year...

I honestly believe the system will peak in 2011..

several factors lead me to believe that..

1. It will have a price cut (BUT, even if it does, its already consumer friendly price wise, and history says once at 199 a console reaches its peak sales rather rapidly)

2. NATAL may be a huge success and potentially an easy system seller

3. HALO reach and potentially GEARS 3/HALO 4 combo

Microsoft is in a good position, and I thikn they can easily keep the 360 in the market without announcing a NEXBOX in 2011 or even 2012.

good reasons there.

 

 

though I think the new momentum of the PS3 since the slim will prevent the 360 to reach any more hights....though it's true Natal is a big unknown and I do think it should move much more consoles than the move...
