Sales - Writing off the 360 - View Post

I guess the real thing is - a win is a win. If MS beats Sony, Gates will be happy. So what the Wii beat the snot out of both systems. MS likes Ninny, and hates Sony. They want to see Sony beaten.

And folks are still waiting to buy either a 360 or a PS3. Some folks are still talking about buying a PS3 with BC! Sony failed to ignite a fire under customers' bottoms until they did a price cut to get their PS3 sold, despite the huge losses. They are hoping to recoup their money through software sales. The 360 is at a point where they can slash prices, make a tiny profit and still get the sales as well.

Sony is running scared - and are pleased with this seasonal bump. But mark my words - and I will gladly have a dish of crow if I am wrong - but ... the PS3 will settle back into pre-holiday numbers with the 360 holding steady.
