You clearly did not read the attached article that started this thread. 360 share is falling and sales are dropping from prior year figures. M$ is reporting mammoth losses on 360 hardware in one of the more embarrassing corporate stoires this side of Enron in recent memory. Clearly it has not "been their year".

It doesn't exactly take a rocket scientist to see that the 360 is garbage, in terms of hardware quality, lagging far behind the PS3, which is a fine piece of hardware. But for the PS3, where's the games?

Fair enough, but most of your statement, and this entire thread, speak about games, and other factors, in the context of their impact on console sales. If I was supposed to separate that last sentence from everything else you said, then my apologies.

We can return to this conversation in fourth months, to see how Halo 3, Ace Combat, and Mass Effect affected console sales then. Either way works for me.
