I doubt the new bundle will bring about any significant change. The 360 is currently under half the price of a 40GB PS3 in Europe and is still being comfortably outsold. There are also non-official bundles very similar to the Halo/PGR one at the moment available in most game shops. At €199 the 360 has effectively reached a mass market price point in the EU (It's even cheaper than the Wii). So I think demand for the console is not going to change much until later this year when MS release some of their big titles, undoubtedly giving the console a noteworthy boost. |
The Arcade pack isn't the grand foundations of the bulk of its sales, people shouldn't compare a SKU the public doesn't like to the Wii.
