Hmm I sorta see.. I was sorta thinking it meant , since most of microsofts fanbase already has an x-box.. that people who bought an xbox currently are less likely to purchase the 360, so they'd be losing money in that sense.. but Im not really big on economics.. or math for that matter
also.. were you referring solely to the reduced price of the current gen consoles? or does this apply to the brand new consoles as well? (like in the 250 to 300 dollar range)
I think it also includes the current consoles.
Selling a console at non profit price wil also increase fan base due to the fact its cheaper. They would rather have an extra 50 thousand people buyin the console at the lower price because they will also buy tons of games.
The fact is that XBOX did not lose money with the XBOX. Its stupid to think that. If they did lose alot of money, why would they continue with XBOX`360? For bragging rights? To be cool? Gates wanted to decrease his fortune for shits and giggles? To make people buy more MS Windows stuff?
They obviously made money.
We dont actually know if its better or not. Spec wise, it is. But performance which is how you can tell if its powerful enough, we cant totally say it is. We dont know, we havnt seen it in any action.
Specs mean something but hows its used that will tell the story. Seen a computer with more RAM and stuff like that underperform computers that have less specs? Just check some PC reviewd in PC Gamer.

I know what you mean, but I know that for 2 gen it has had the game playability and versatility, but not polish and graphics, however still weighing out for the playstation systems, and I expect the same, thats all.
Yeah but remember the only reason why the PS2 was such a success with games because it was released earlier than the X-box. Now both consoles are going to have a good chance at the title of games...
But with processing power...the ps3 is going to own with the experimental chip... 3 3.2 processors doesn't match it... phuxor...
you don't really know what's going to pwn or whats not until the actual battle begins. I think since X-box 360 is coming out earlier it may have the upper hand on sales and because its getting most of the live 2007 games and sh17 but I don't really know...
since the ps3 has the better specs then... it should be up to who is faithful and who isn't... but halo 3 being released on the date of the ps3 release will really phuck up the sales of it.
