i think they are doing this to ensure that 360 sales will keep up with ps3's sales when the next generation starts so ps3 doesnt pass the 360 in sales ltd |
You're right, they so give a shit about that.
The only ones who actually care about the ltd sales anymore are the fanboys and believers(Who have been believing since 2006). Although it's nice to see the sales, the novelty has worn off now, seeing as this gen is 7 years in now.

then why else would they do it?
Microsoft said that they want the 360 to sell more hardware than PS3 when its all said and done..

Money, Microsoft is a corporation, having a product that is a smaller price point and appeals to a wide audience will be a sure source of income and continue the products longivity, after all, having old tech that is cheap to manufacture selling at still a reasonable price with profit, means profit. Profit means more money, it's simple. Every company would do that, I like how you jumped to that conclusion though, you seem to live on Mars or something.

lol well somebody seems to be defensive
yea they want profit but they also want to sell more than ps3 and nothing you say will change that..
if they release an xbox lite then MS wont have to drop the price of the 4gb arcade system AGAIN
"longevity" is the key ;)
and no i live on Venus =P

I am not defensive, it's just mind boggling when people draw stupid conclusions that have been long buried and forgotten out of thin air. I think if MS really wanted to sell more than PS3, the price would have been dropped by now, after all 360 has been profitting for more than few years now, that leaves room to drop the price in an attempt to increase sales, rather than sit on the same price point and try to maximize profits.
That's how I usually type, people always seem to think it's aggressive, but I guess that's how it appears to those who seem to draw stupid conclusion out of thin air. This whole LTD sales battle has been fun, probably about 3 years ago, now it's just boring, "2009/2010/2011 will be the year the PS3 outsells 360 ltd", its been so long, barely anyone gives a damn anymore tbh.

360 has not seen a price drop yet because Kinect rose 360 sales higher than what a price drop would have done
the Kinect also rises its sales high enough in the holidays to keep ps3 at bay with it catching up
i said you seemed defensive because you said that i live on mars or something
a 360 lite at $100 with Kinect in the holidays would probably be enormous(keeping its sales tremendously high) and they would still have the arcade system at $200 making more profit
i dont care about your little ltd battles you had in the past
i only talk about how the companys feel, i dont care about how YOU feel about it
microsoft wants to sell more hardware than ps3 and thats that..

You got a source or link? Or its just in your head?

go and watch Microsofts E3 press conference back in 07 or 08
it was the 1 when Microsoft announced that Final Fantasy 13 would come to 360
it was the E3 when microsoft almost talked about "PlayStation" more than they did their own damn console lol
they said that they wanted to sell more than ps3 when it is all said and done
