| ioi said: If PS4 ends up with 100m and Xbox end with 80m then it won't have played out all that differently to this gen. For PS4 to reach 120m then Xbox would have to stall at 60m which I can't see happening. This is why I keep coming back to my point of breaking out and finding new audiences - it is a much easier way to make money. I'd say that 15m of the 360s 80m or so came this way (via Kinect) so if they can do that more aggressively this generation then it gives them another angle to grow and compete, outside of the fight for the 150m core purchases. |
What makes you think X1 will sale anywhere near as well as PS4 ? or even anyhwere near what 360 did.
Just about every reason 360 sold well does not apply to MS console this gen.
It sold well on the back of Sonys massive screw ups, they had every advantage yet only managed to match Sony at the end of it. Now they are in a sales battle with Sony and its best and its been MS the one that was screwing up. They lack every advantage they had last gen.
Xbox has none of the advantages it had that were fundemental to 360 success.
Early launch, sales build up
Price advantage
3rd party support quality
Easy of development over PS
Early software advantage
Online superior, Sony caught up
You think kinetic will make up for all that ? or its overblowed hyperbole tv features.
