Why Microsoft Needs a Kick in the Pants (and Why I hope MGS4 does it)

June NPD will be epic.

I think PS3 = 2x 360. If it does beat it by 2:1, expect a 250 arcade, 300 premium, and 400 elite.

If it's anything less than that, don't expect a pricedrop. MS is worried about profit now.

Ok.  MGS4 is officially a disappointment if the PS3 doesn't outsell the 360 2 to 1 this June NPD.

 

Nah, not really.

That's what I think.  Especially with how low 360 and PS3 are this week in America, if the PS3 can just sell 200 - 250k more consoles than XBOX in June (4 week month), it will double 360 sales.  I don't think that's too hard of a stretch, but I'm no Pachter.  

MGS4 is a success no matter what happens, since it's an awesome game.  But sales-wise, I'd call it a disappointment if it didn't outsell 360 by 1.5:1
