So, Microsoft have said, a few times, that they plan to be #1 in sales, for 2011. Sales not shipments.

What have they got up their sleeve? Are they just talking the talk? Or just bonkers.

I'll track the 360's progress against the only rival above it now, the PS3. (although I do think 3DS will go above both, not sure if MS are counting handhelds)


And this comes from a guy who thinks xbox has chance of outselling ps2 in america...

But it does have a chance. Both this year and next year will be massive for the 360 in America. This year due to how well it's selling already and next year due to the price cut.

And then it will sell at least a couple of years after that.


It does not have the slightest chance. It needs to sell 25m+ in its last dying years. That is almost 100% of what it sold LTD, and there's no chance of that happening, even if it has 10 Halos coming out next year. Hell, next 2 years would need to be as good or better than 2005,2006,2007,2008,2009,2010 and 2011 COMBINED !!. Seriously, anypne who thinks this has the slightest chance of happening is extremely delusional abouth the subject

How about you learn to debate without attacking/name calling people. 

It's not in it's dying years. This year the 360 will probably match or be up YOY in the Americas not to mention next year it will probably do close to this year because there will be a price cut.

And you are assuming that the 360 will stop selling completely when the next box comes out which is not going to be the case at all. The only reason why MS pulled the original Xbox is because it was a black hole for money.

If you look at the numbers you will see it is possible that the 360 overtakes the PS2 sales in the Americas.
