Forums - Sales - Will the Xbox360 win this quarter with the pricecut or not?

Did the PriceCut help much in Europe?, In the UK new Arcade is this same price as the Wii. I'm not reallty sure they can beat PS3 this quarter, but it should be close.

Part of others



All of the following are about my thoughts on the matter. No one elses but me. Agree and Disagree if you want.

Q: Will 360 win Q3?
A: No.
R: I Really don't see the 360 beating the Wii's sales.

Q: Will the 360 come in second place Q3?
A: No.
R: I didn't win in Q1 and Q2. Even with the price cut in July it didn't beat the ps3...

Q: With future price cuts will the 360 win in america in Q3?
A: No.
R: Lets look at VGchartz front page.... hmmm.... didn't win last week....... wasn't there still a clearance sale of the 20GB??

Conclusion: 360 will get some good boosts threw the remainder of this year... but nothing amazing. Fable 2 is my highest expected boost. Gears2 I don't see moving units since gears 1 was on the 360 aswell. But it should give maybe a nice little bumb in sales.

/Well.... Guess am never coming back to this thread. I will probably get a brutal jumping.....

It helped by about 30-40% but since the demand for the Xbox360 is greater in the Americas the effects of a price cut will also be much greater.

 



Tease.

The Wii doesn't interest me. :)

Coming off the tail end of the MGS4 boost. Also Q1/Q2 showed a relative closing of the gap between the Xbox360/PS3 before the MGS4 boost came into effect, so the trends were looking good.

Low stocks of the 20gb? The Xbox360 numbers are below normal anyway.

Most games do not give a hardware boost, its safer to assume they won't than to assume they will.

Tease.

Didn't Halo 2 provide a decent boost to XBox sales?

Yes, yes it is. No one is going to even try to beat the Wii anymore. But that's still offensive so you've been warned.

 



 

 

Montana, do you see the PS3 really being able to surpass the 360 before 2010 or in 2010?

Why are you asking me? Do you really think I care?
