| obieslut said: If Microsoft cut the price of the x360's in half it could be the end of the sony ps3 unless the follow. if Microsoft want to stick the knife into sony they can do it, it is not like they can not afford it, pluss if micrsoft did this it could prevent sony from competing in the next generation, which i swhat Microsoft probably want anyway. If Microsoft did this they will probably sell lots of x360 depending how many people want it. but if sony was to follow with the same price cuts then it would benefit sony more when it comes to sales, but they would not be able to afford it, on the other hand Microsoft can. What are your thoughts, and how much do you think the x360 would sell if Microsoft did this |
It won't be the end for Sony. Third party developers will likely continue with timed exclusives like SO4. The problem is that the HD market is just too small for real exclusives. Microsoft already stole third party support. They will have a huge boost in sales, and will out sell the PS3 even when the impact wears off. This ain't a good idea for Microsoft. Their 18mln fanbase will be mad, when Microsoft cuts 360's price in half. It will also drive their PR division crazy, because it's impossible to cover the bad media all around the internet. It took them almost a year, before they covered RRoD.
