Superchunk will arrive shortly with his version. 150 people in line and not a single 360 out of the door.
I do believe it will move some consoles, though... The big question is how many? 100K? 250K? |
Microsoft assumes 30%of the first week halo 3 buyers will buy a 360 with it. |
Do you have a link to this number attributed to a Microsoft Exec? I can't believe anyone (even at MS, lol) would make that kind of prediction. They KNEW going into launch that they had 1.5 million already sold and probably hoped at least another 1 million would go out the door within the week. 30% of 2.5 million is 750K consoles in one week... I can't imagine that even being a remote possibility and any MS employee that honestly believed so and put it in writing should be publicly ridiculed. Man, I'll have a heaping helping of Crow if they do, eh? |
Uffz, so many news about halo 3 lately. It was a little different than exactly stating that.
.... Searching ..... .... Searching ..... ... Found .... "But the real question is what the broader impact of Halo will be, particularly on sales of the Xbox 360. Kim said he has talked with retailers, some of whom expect 30 percent of early Halo 3 purchasers to also take home an Xbox 360."

Ah, so he was quoting (assuming he didn't make it up) what some retailers were expecting and not stating this was his personal belief. If I were Kim I certainly wouldn't have stated that because he knows it's not possible... He would have been better off with a "some of whom expect a lot of hardware to go out the door with early purchasers"....
