what ever the 200 arcade did to em last year

sure 360 arcades sales will be a bit higher b/c of the extra features but not by alot you can give another 100 and get a 250gb HDD how much $ do have to spend on that new arcade to even get close to 250gb??

imo the new arcade is not a better deal as it was when it debuted at 200 and the $300 pro had only a 60gb HDD

360s big boost already happen with the 250gb most who wanted it bought that sku

imo they shot there gun to early in the yr if they had released both the new 4gb and 250gb sometime in sep-nov MS would of had way better sales than they already did b/c of the holiday push and excitement of new models all at once

whats real interesting is that MS kept the price the same for the 360 at 200 and 300 this tells me the gen will last longer than most think i believe the earliest 2014 we should get new consoles from MS or sony

also imo sony and MS holidays sales will be a repeat of last years since the prices of cheapest to cheapest is still 200 vs 300 and that last year sony had ff13 to help achieve big #s this yr it will have GT5 global launch to do the same but anything could still happen sony could drop to 280-250 or MS could drop 50 on its 2 skus and

Well, could be. 

But there is no way Sony will outsell M$ this year now. 

I believe the 360s Arcade will help push anyone on the fence. Also they needed to release June/July, because Kinect already has a 3 week delay on preorders where I live. Meaning whoever preorders now wont get theres till Dec 15th where I live. 

Kinect will drive huge sales at Christmas, And Halo Reach will give 360s a good surge before Kinect in September. 

M$ have planned this year very well.

I expect the gap between PS3 and 360 to be 7 million by Jan 1st.
