Forums - Microsoft - What can Microsoft do to increase X-Box 360 sales at this point?(Fall 2008)

Was anyone not surprised to find that PS3 outsold the 360 in July (NPD).

I know I was. If a price cut can't push the 360 past PS3 in the same month that FF13 is announced for it, then what can/should they do?

I'm really at a loss here. Any suggestions besides "just wait for Gears of War 2"?

 



Around the Network

An ad campaign featuring Billy Dee Williams.



I'm sorry I'm distracted by the awesomeness of Billy D... with the Lando avatar!!

MGS4 came out in July. It is generally regarded as an amazing game. It sold a few consoles. End of story.

You shouldn't be surprised at low sales in the summer. It's always a bad time of year for the video game industry.




Hire Billy Dee Williams to become the spokesperson for the Xbox 360.

Complete turnaround in 6 months. X360>Wii LTD.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Around the Network

maybe more advertisement?



Advertise more, I haven't seen a commercial for the console in a long time. They should also do ads showing Netflix being used on the 360.



X-Box 360 it works every time.....

Hmmmmm.......



Get more RPGs--no wait, it has them...more shoo--has them too. Platfor---puzzle gam--racing--figh--um...

Heck, theres not much else they can bring in the gaming department. Advertising would probably do it, considering I see a PS3 commerical about 3 times every day, and a "Wii would like to play" about 5 times every day.



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.
