Forums - Microsoft - Does anyone think the 360 really need price drop

I think in Europe the 360 might need one in 2008, but in United States its unleashing hell, especially in software sales. And if they corner even a third of the casual market you'll never see the beast unleashed, "if you know what I mean". I feel time might be running out for the PS3's comeback.

No, not when demand is there and they are still selling at a loss. Its smarter to keep it as it is for them on a business perspective even if they lose a bit of market share from it.



in EU they need one...

in USA, no

My prediction for YEARS END:

WII - 18.3 Million

Xbox 360 - 15 Million

Playstation 3 - 8.5 Million

in japan they need too give them away for 50 euro's (dunno how much yen that is), take mass loss there, but gaining total "domination"

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

In EU/AU all the systems need a pricedrop. They also need companies to start doing world wide releases.

In the US. The 360 AND PS3 need pricecuts...

because I don't own them yet.

 Excuse me for my ignorance, but how much does it cost in Europe. Is it close to the price of PS3.




 

I doubt 360 could take the Japanese market even at $50, but they need to do something there.

In Europe yes, they can't allow PS3 to gain momentum

In NA, no, they're in a good spot right now, but I would suggest one prior to GTAIV to mess PS3 up.

in the Uk its

Elite £299.99

Pro £249.99    (actualy cheaper and with bundles in some shops)

Arcade £189.99

 

 

PS3 40gb £299.99



In Japan I really don't think there's anything they can do, besides give it a new name and re-release bootleg copies of old PS1 & 2 games on it.
