if your talking about 720 sales, it will have great sales, but being online all the time, will really hurt it, but its first year in the us will be amazing.

No, I wasn't talking about sales, but since you brought it up, I agree that an "Always Online" requirement would hurt its sales.

Hell, I was open to getting a 720, I had a 360 last gen, but I certainly won't be buying one if it requires a constant online connection.
