360 best year ever it's 7th year?

Hell I've said it for the last two years and been right, I may as well go for a hat-trick.

Price cuts and some big US centric software might just make this happen.

I think the pricecut will come right around Wii U launch, personally. While it wont do much to the Wii U outside of the US, over in the States it will be a big blow for Nintendo, when the current most popular console there becomes even cheaper.

Halo 4, Call of Duty, GTA5, Kinect Star Wars and Fable... Should be the biggest 360 Year in the US at least.

Yep, that last sentence and those games means a huge year for 360 in USA and UK.  Plus you have to think a $149 / £99 360 with a bundled game or $199 / £149 with kinect will kill in those markets. I don't think those prices will be far off come the back end of 2012.

I think that an evitable console annoucement from either SONY or Microsoft, WIiU hype the 360 should logically be down YoY in 2012. Though if it does manage to end up YoY (and assuming PS3 sales don't randomly plumet) then i wonder how Microsoft and SONY will react? It wouldn't make much financial sense to release a new console if the current consoles are increasing YoY or even flat YoY given the current economic climate.
