Yeah that sounds about right; better PR and first party support should raise it above the Xbone, but I don't see it having the long legs, 10 year lifespan, or Kinect boost that elevated 360 to the sales it reached.

It also doesn't have the red ring of death. No one owned just one Xbox 360, they owned multiple. lol

Can confirm; my first one died on me and I bought a second one to replace it. The flipside of that though is that its reputation as faulty hardware may have dissuaded a lot of potential buyers and so hurt hardware sales as well as helped them.
