| Shinobi-san said: I dont thin Sony can afford bundles like MS are doing...Sony went for the pricecut (which was needed imo) and Ms went for value added bundles. I gotta say MS went with the right decision, and id like to say Sony went with the wrong one but i dont think they had much of a choice, the PS3 is stil quite pricey outside of the US. |
Well Sony has had the bundles as well. What MS did was go with more co-marketing deals with retailers. Im sure MS said we sell X amount of 360s in your stores and you get a rebate or something like that. So the retailers are offering these big gift cards expecting people to use those gift cards on other merchandise that maybe they would have got elsewhere or skipped altogether.
Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.
