Finally!! $130 less than the cheapest PS3 but they'll win by only 1,000 WW units!!

Congrats Xbox 360.

 

LOL!

 

The price cut makes it 100 dollars less...

One can turn this around too you know. It would sound something like...

"Sony includes a Bluray player and wireless for only 100 dollars more and they can't even outsell the 360. Pathetic."

 

 ...and upon further studies, one common method of dealing with the traumas of psycological insecurities is to "even the odds" when situations do not highly favor the trauma stricken individual...

 

;)

Tears to Tiara (LE) sold 50k combined.

PS3 could beat 360 this week if it does 14k better than it in Japan.

If it sells 18k, as long as 360 sells 4k or less, it'll beat it.

Is that enough of a hardware mover to get the high end?  I haven't even heard of that game before, what is it about?

Read the Weekly Japan Preview.

Didn't the EU get a price cut as well?

As soon as the 20-gb goes out of stock, I predict that they'll toss the 60-gb system down to $299 (sort of like Sony did, only that was $399)

 

the 60GB is going to cost $350 and its going to stay there for a while.

Interesting. Very good boost for the X360. Big question is how long this boost lasts.

Also, unless VGC overtracks PS3 sales this week, the PS3 won't sell 15k units even with it's new game this week - 12-13k is more likely.

Nevertheless, it's a first for the year...Which is good. I wonder what'll happen if MS kept the $299 price point for the 60GB 360? Hopefully this sends MS a clear signal that if they want to sell more units, to lower the D*** price.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

I did thats why I said high end.  The lower end is 14k.



Hi, this is Vince with Shamwow.

I really didn't expect sales to be that high. That means that Hardware sales doubled! Wow.

 Interesting, I would've thought that M$ would want to fight back in EU as Sony is currently breezing by them there.
