| zealwilx said: microsoft knows fully well that were it not for the rough and the delayed launch of the ps3, the 360 wouldnt be where it is in sales numbers today. that said, the chances of the ps3 overtaking the 360 this Gen is slim mainly due to the fact that the 360 always has a $100 cheaper model. once the PS3 drops to $199, that will be the death knell for 360, as majority of the sales of the 360 comes from the cheaper model as rrod victims normally purchase the cheaper arcade models just incase of another rrod occuring. |
Statistics proove this wrong. NPD has numerous times let average Xbox 360 sales price slip and it is always around $270. Simple math shows that this means that the majority purchased are the more expensive model. 360 software attach rate has also continued to grow nicely again if these consoles were simply replacements software attach rate would suffer.
Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.
