I wonder if Sony might extend their promotion to include Christmas, I already thought it was strange it didn't when they announced the deal.


They will probably do another day or two of cooldown and another special bundle discount, maybe with another game

Mr Puggsly: "Hehe, I said good profit. You said big profit. Frankly, not losing money is what I meant by good. Don't get hung up on semantics"

So the XBO got slashed $50 in almost all deals and for longer than the PS4?

Wasn't it going to be about raising profitability this year?


They are probably just doing anything that they can, to try and catch up to the PS4 a bit more, at this point.

MS no longer sees currency as profits anymore. They've become rich on MAUs* now.
