i guess the achievement factor plays a bigger role than everybody thinks.

Secondhanded X360 games are cheaper for me that's why my X360 has a higher attach rate than my PS3 and Wii.

i have a 360 all the things u posted up are indeed great. i enjoy everything that 360 offers

only thing which ticks me off is im on my fifth xbox360 now. havnt had any issues with my wii or ps3. soo i have added five to the tally. im not a xbox hater im just sayn it would be gd if the hardware was more stable. i have had too many friends get burnt over the three rings of death.
360 is sitting in a great position atm they needa keep it going.

On your fifth xbox? I don't understand, do you throw it about, how can someone go though 5 Xboxs and still keep buying. You must be the unluckish xbox owner ever.

PC gaming rules.....

CHEEVO'S BABY!!

I like building a collection up, I find it hard to understand how any 360 owner owns less than the attach rate of 8 or w/e it is now.

wow, you didn't even put in the most important reason. The fact that it launched a year earlier...

Is that really that important of a factor? I don't have numbers but did the Genesis, Saturn and Dreamcast have great attach rates in comparison to competition? They were also on the market first and something is telling me that probably none of those had better attach rates. I could be wrong though.

 

well that and the price of the ps3 is the reason the xbox has done "so well" for itself.

hardcore gaming has its home, and its called XBOX360...

 

i hope you don't talk like that in real life.

Xbox 360 has been out a year longer.

So the average console has been in the users hands roughly 6 months longer than the competition.

Games sell on average at the rate of one game per console every 2 months.

So the attach rate for Xbox 360 should be three bigger than the other two consoles in US. Wii should be slightly bigger than PS3 worldwide because of delayed EU launch for PS3.

So, unless the attach rate is lots more than 3+(PS3 or Wii) it isn't awesome at all.

What's your reasoning behind PS3's price being a factor?
