| Seece said: No way. A) they wouldn't announce it this early, they're not Nintendo. They announced X360 5 months before it launched. B) 2012 launch is out of the question, Halo 4 is coming and it's coming on X360, they wouldn't launch it on 720, userbase is far to small. C) they won't price cut this holiday, they'll chop $100 off the kinect bundle price 2012 holiday and that'll be what they focus on to compete with PS3 $199 and WiiU. |
A. 5 months compared to this which would be 10 months if the rumor is true. Still fits MS's strategy to announce a console the same year before release.
B Ever considered MS pulling a Twilight princess? USing the 360 version for sales but using the next gen Halo 4 with improved graphics to lure new customers to next gen?
C. Maybe MS is getting all the profit they can this holiday, do the price drop in the spring of 2012 to get as much non holiday sales they can, and then at the same time market the 360 and next gen Xbox in a combined cross gen media blitz that will overshadow anything Nintendo and Sony could advertise?
Thats how I see it anyway. Both are possibilities.
Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
