I wouldn't be surprised if MS starts price cutting heavily to really hit Sony, taking a $100 off the elite (and phasing out the arcade), would really put Sony in a bind.

They have been doing it already.

And MS is running a business, not your wishes.

M$ seems to be more interested in making money...imagine that!

and getting ride of the arcade and lowering the Elite price further down will make them more money?

You guys need to define "console years" here. Do they start at the launch date or are they just calendar years?

Mass Effect is not a system seller and neither is GOW.

I agree

PS2's HIGH sales along with GOW's quality drove GOW sales imo

Hey GOW 3 NA sales > FF13 PS3 NA sales.

Bet ?

MS got into the business to stop Sony and protect its core windows market, you don't think they will see an opportunity to bleed Sony dry as a good move?

Amazing for Nintendo, awesome for Sony, meh/ok for MS. Tekken 6 sold twice as much on PS3 and more in NA, same will happen for FF13. Cool beans.

I'd say GOW 3 easily has it in the bag.

Not sure why everyone says amazing for Nintendo.
3 months ago we still had all the Nintendo fanboys telling us holydays 2009 would outperform holydays 2008 for the Wii.

In between we got a price cut that most actually didn't expect and Wii this week is 100k down YoY...



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !
