the biggest outlay is the price for a new console if the 360 is a lot cheaper people will buy that. cheaper consoles have an advantage, notice how Wii is doubling the competition in console sales and software sales are triple those of its competition.

You do realize that nobody (I mean, NOBODY) buys a console for just one game, right?

Customer walks in, wanting to buy a console and GTAIV, they see the big GT5P poster on the way. You tell me, what do you think is going to happen? ;)

GT 5 P i repeat is a demo, a demo wait for the full game GT 5. BTW racing games are so boring you drive around a track lap after lap. Arcade racers like Need for Speed and Burnout games receive lower scores but are more fun to play than racing sims like GT and Forza.

Ok the UK market is different to the US market where people will buy the cheaper console for the same GTA 4 experience.

 you clearly don't understand the European market at all. Just because you don't like GT5P and realistic racing at all, it doesn't mean the European consumers don't, In fact, watch GT5P sales number and you will find out all.
