Three years sounds about right for the 'neXus' or whatever but the 360 won't stop at that point like xbox. I expect a small LT HW win for Sony but it looks less and less likely they'll be leading by 2013. There will be about 6B people who have never played a video game at that point and at $100 or so, with these libraries at bargain-bin prices, we can expect both HD consoles to be selling well. I've never understood the market saturation concept. Every new internet connection and decent job around the world creates another potential gamer. If the 360 is still cheaper it may still offset the BR advantage. Not sure what point is proven by which box sells slightly more in the 'History of Video Gaming' vol. 6. This gen's winner is all decided. If trends continue there will be no losers.
Speaking of weeks to watch Nov. 2nd GT5, Nov. 4th KInect will be interesting. The Last Guardian could get buried on the 1st. Check out Oct. SW releases. There are 5 must-plays for me that month. How will GOW3, ME2, FFXIII, HR, SMG2, RDR etc. do in their first holiday sell-a-thon and what gets bundled? Home console sales should be close for a change.
CharmedontheWB: I believe that's ignoramii as the plural like hippopottamii and we're fine with it. I can't speak for fanpersons and trollfolk. Who I refer to as 'Haters' and 'The Stoned'.
Fumanchu: Nice posts! Apropos. The Reach bundle looks shiny and will move some consoles. It is a small HW upgrade and an extra controller alone would go for $60. It will be hard to judge exactly but more than the Halo Haters here are hoping.
