FFX HD will be a huge seller.

Your comment comes across as being bias also.

360 may end up selling less than PS3 and or Wii but MS has increased their market share this gen. To be honest I'm amazed they were able to achieve this given the whole RROD fiasco.

Regardless of what happens for the remainder of this gen I dare say both MS and Sony will be looking for ways to increase the attach rate of games as that's where the real money is. Its simply not good business to have 70 million consoles in circulation and only sell a million copies of most games. Sure there are some exceptions but overall I can see why both companies have introduced measures to profit from second hand game sales.

Finally someone who knows how many Xbox 360's I replaced within the first two years..

They knew what they were doing, I knew and I will never buy another console from Microsoft again because of that.

If I had the money I would have sued their asses for what they pulled. Most people wouldn't know cause they never looked, but I was the few who actually took mine apart and could give a rats ass about that damn rainbow protection sticker...

Seriously though I was shocked not more people talk about that or it wasn't even on the net, I guess it goes to show how little people care to know what is inside what they buy.

The Heat sinks they put in the first Xbox 360's were made to cause the chips to fail and overheat, in all my life I seriously never had seen such cheap heat sinks in anything and was shocked to see someone as big as Microsoft using practically Tin heat sinks.. You can't tell me they didn't know better?

People who have been in the computing world longer than I have been alive didn't notice that? Hmm yea right, more like it was planned to sell more 360's when in fact like you said many of those sales were due, to people already owning a faulty system and having to buy another.

Shit had a LAN one time, first fucking day one of my friends was all stoked, he was watching us LAN on the 360 so he went out and bought one. That shit broke, that night.. I wish I was joking.. I felt so bad for him of course all of ours ended up doing the same shit at some point.

I was smarter than the average bear though, I would buy a new Xbox 360, strip the faulty one, put the new Xbox's case on the broken hardware and then I would simply return it.. Bam new 360 for me for free.. and not having to send shit in or actually spend money on another.. I had people pay me to do that, good times off of Microsoft mistakes I actually made a good bit of money doing that for people.

Funny how after those two years those, they release those new model and you would not believe how different the heat sink was in those.. They were sooo much better it wasn't even funny to me.. They knew what they were doing all along those bastards.

Sorry for the rant but man I will never forget that.. I literally lost count of how many I had to switch out myself.. not including all the other people who asked me to do the same to theirs..

YOu are wrong. Sony is still in last place.

Your false numbers come from the IDC report that state not only were the consoles "shipped" consoles but they also admitted they were "estimates". Not only are those 3rd party numbers and are not Sony's own numbers but the ignorant sony fanboys on this site keep spreading those 3rd party estimated shipped numbers as sony's own stated sold at retail market share numbers.

People like you need to stop spreading BS. Sony will eventually overtake MS before the year is done so long as MS keeps selling the 360 $100 too much, but as of right now, the 360 is still leading the PS3.

You should try to share in the logic. Instead, your behavior isn't one that reflects someone seeking knowledgeable, fair posters.

@CGI

Wow lol, he isn't allowed to congratulate MS but everyone else is allowed to praise Sony and get millions of 'agrees'? Lmao go home kid, this site is farked.

SDF is a blatant troll.

There's alwaysd a hidden agenda behind his words.

They are waiting for an influx of new games to come to the US. Probably 3rd quarter this year.

They will in due time one the reasons only in Japan right now is to test the market and see if the price cut will make a difference and after seeing this I think I will get them moving on cutting the price everywhere else

no its not over. It's over when the PS3/360/Wii stop being manufactured and discontinued for good.

bad news for you that they are still being produced till now, and every sale that happen now is as important as every sale that happened in 2006.
