Wait Microsoft sells the 360 at a loss ( they do at least in europe ) how would a manufacturer manage to make one cheaper without a downgrade in already poorly made hardware ?They would need to make a profit from it.
This also opens up the possibility of piracy since I dought the hardware makers will receive anything from the sales of games so they won't activley fight piracy like microsoft.
There's also game incompatibility issues , imagine COD5 comming out the "pannasonic XBOX 360 owners want a patch because of poor framerates and crashes whilst the Samsungs 360 owners can't start the game at all".
With a large % XBOX 360 exclusives already on or heading to the PC what would be the point of a 360 ad on ?
I'm done. |
- we don't know whether MS sells x360 at a loss (as for EU mind that at the current exchange rate the arcade model is sold for roughly 300$ here in EU: still more than in US)
- you know that little piece of paper with lots of clauses? ok, i think MS is able to reach an arrangement with a 3rd party manufacturer.
- well it will depend on MS ability to set the standard.
- assuming this is true...ok, what's the point of buyin a x360 then? go out and ask the 20M customers...someone must have the answer.
