| errorrrr said: you can't say pirated games hurt sales... Buying the x360 over Ps3 in the first place for those pirates is the very fact that they can pirate games. If you can't pirate games, they wouldn't even buy the x360. If anything, the fact that games CAN be pirated only helped DS and the X360 sell better over PS3 and PSP (with the PSP starting in 3000 and Go unpiratable, and the fact that PSP is a system that can be easily updated via firmware which locks out new games being played on outdated firmware). |
I agree with most of what you said. Alot of ppl I knew originally purchased a 360 over the PS3 due to the fact that you could pirate games. While most of them go purchase the big exclusives like Gears, Halo, COD,ect most of the other games they download.
I do have to disagree with the psp factor because that is a system where modding and pirating affected it significantly. I mean with the psp updates frequently but there's always a new modded firmware around the corner. I think a huge part of the problem with the psp was the pricing on the games when they first came out (overpriced in my opinion)
