Forums - Microsoft - Happy 21st week Xbox 360! (21 weeks since the sales turn around)

XBox 360 lead over PS3 widens to 10 million. That would be a huge milestone.

So 1 out of 3 360 owners own Halo 3. 33%, not bad considering those that buy a extra 360 because theirs died and what not. I only know like one person who doesn't like Halo 3.



It's just that simple.

The single player was alright. As for online people should play Team Fortress 2 instead (preferably on PC) :P

good job, anyway why your gamertag is so low Squilliam.

Because he spends more time talking about it then actually playing it.

 

Nonono my real gamerscore is 8,000. Thats from what I got naturally from playing without actually trying for achievements.

 



Tease.

No way it could sell 40 million by 2010.

I think Team Fortress is great on the 360 outside of the lack of maps. It gets old pretty quick without new maps. I hope Valve doesn't do the same for Left 4 Dead, cause that game was pretty much endless for me for a good month, but it needs maps.

I'll gladly buy any Valve title on the 360 even though the PC version is better. They just gota work on adding content.

That's true, I didn't think of that regarding the 360 version. They don't allow for custom maps either?

TF2 is so good that I just changed my nearly 2-year old avatar because of it.

No mods or map creating. That hurts a lot.

What really hurts is when there are new maps for the PC and we don't see them on DLC.

Hopefully Valve brings L4D maps because that game sells like hot cakes.



It's just that simple.

Actually I wonder if the Xbox 360 can do 30M before the end of the quarter?

 

Nah even if it averaged 180k over the next 9 weeks it would still only be around 29.6 million, I don't think Halo Wars can boost another 400k 360's.

 

29.5M by April 1st would be neat though.

  • Resident Evil 5.
  • Star Ocean 4.
  • Chance for an adjustment up.

I say theres a pretty decent chance, especially as European sales seem to be more steady than U.S sales over the year and thats the market where the Xbox 360 has made the most progress.
