Consider that the 360 has a software attachment rate of 8.1, which has been highly publicised and touted by MS as the best ever attach rate for a console in history.

You now want us to believe that the install base is actually just 20 million? This means an attach rate of ~11.5!

Wow...which word shall I choose to describe this feat? How about GREAT!

There goes my concept of all Xbox 360 owners being great again! Its good to see people understand it so well.

 



Tease.

What about PS3 owners buying it ONLY for blue ray?

Aww logic failed.

 

 

why are you dancing around the situation ?! wether for games or movies its still just one PS3 console !! people are misunderstanding this so badly . im talking about ONE person BUYING multiple same kind console !!



I went through 3 360's so I kinda understand what he's trying to say but then I dont understand lol....their cant be THAT many F*cked up 360's...

Oh and my 360's NEVER broke down on me and I had 3...

1st 360 sold for having lack of games at the time that was in early 2006

2nd 360 (Elite) sold for being a D*ckhead needed money at the time

3rd 360 sold since I got a Ps3 and I had to gather up money for my car :)

See so technically I had 3 of those 28 Mil...but thats just me idk How many other people did this lol...and I know some people who would rather go out and buy another 360 then have it shipped then have to wait for it to come back...its possible but doesnt make up for the 8 mil gap

That just means that someone else has those other two now--the amount people own is still exactly the same.  In fact, by this guy's logic, you increaed the install base by doing that.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

Okay, but you sold those three. So presumably somebody is using them.

 



People that buy 360 just to watch Netflix should count as 0

Xbone... the new "N" word   Apparently I troll MS now | Evidence | Evidence

I'd be more willing to concede that 1-1.5 million were re-purchases. Not 8 million. Purely based on the attach rate statistic.

Do you have any other additional information that would lead you to conclude that 8 million consoles are just sitting in the trash 'holding a one way ticket to the sun' so to speak?

my logic is simple , if you still want to ignore it be my guest .

and how the hell is the install base going to increase!!!!

 



Why dont we compare the number of online accounts. Plus I know 3 people that have 2 or more 360s.
