I have a wii, just recently purchased and I own a 360 since dec 2005-I am looking forward to gears of war 2 and fable 2 looks great-but the wii is pretty damn fun even know the graphics are kinda lack-I have a 1080p set and it still looks lack but the games are pretty fun-the 360 rea;;y needs to come int its own with the easy to play games that are great for a couple to play together-my girlfriend loves the wii and I cant get her to play the 360 with me for more than 30 minutes!!! I believe that is why the wii is crushing everything right now

360 making profit, MS stated it will sell 360 as long as its in demand, even if the next Xbox is released, they buy out devs for exclusives, LIVE growing despite cost, and its selling faster then the origional XBox did.

Not worried in the slightest.

No, I could give a flip about sales in the end as long as the 360 does not go the way of the DC. It's not going anywhere.

I guess this summers price drop,depending how much will determine how much the 360 sells this year-hoping for$100 on all three modles but it will probaly be $50 again and $30 on the core

Nothing wrong with 360 future or PS3s. It isnt like everyone is suddenly going to stop buying 360s or PS3s.

im worried because game size is going to change in 2 to 3 years so microsoft will have to come up with their own format to fit big AAAA game like MGS4. There doing fine with xbox live, 360 sales and game sales. There future is bright but they need to take more risks.

Not really, the 360's future is always getting better, while the ps3's is always getting worse with game cancellations, delays, and other stuff like that.

Not at all. I'm actually more excited for the 360's future than the PS3, even though both have great lineups this fall.

People bailing on the 360 really need to check themselves. Yeah the ps3 is starting to come out with good games that will compete with the 360 and actually make it worth it, but the 360 still has just as impressive a lineup coming. IT really depends what games you like.

There is no reason why the Xbox 360 would be dying out anytime soon. It's going strong and it will stay like that until the next console is released. It's just their next console that I'm worried about. With these hardware issues and failure rates, Microsoft had better have one strong strategy to make it with another. The Xbox 360 attracts people with its software library, even though it does have its highly publicized (and often exaggerated) issues. The next will need a marginally better library than its competitors to succeed. Basically, I'm not worried about the Xbox 360 fading, even with PoS3 fanboys on the prowl right now (each with their own special list of "facts"), I'm just concerned about the next release actually.

Just to help Microsoft beat Sony, I'm buying a new Xbox this summer.

And from then on, I'm buying 2 copies of every game.

For me its the opposite I have had my Wii since 2 weeks after its launch and I berly got the 360 in Janurary of this year and I havent touched my Wii in 6 months.

Its cauze as of right now nothing big has came out unlike last year how we had Bioshock, COD 4, assassins creed the orange box ect.

But dont worry Gears 2, Left 4 Dead, Banjo, Re 5 and Half life 2 episode 3 are on the horizon

I'm worried but for different reasons than the TC.

I'm afraid they don't know which avenues to explore. It seems they wanted to explore the hi-def format avenue for a while and there are still rumblings of pursuing a BluRay add-on.

It seems they want to explore the motion control avenue similar to what the Wii offers.

They're trumping Sony's online gaming network but at the same time, Sony continues to make strides in that department so they have to continue fending them off.

Sony's recent success with MGS4 shows that it still has a lot of juice left especially with support and developers in Japan. Yet another thorn in Microsoft's side.

My concern is that with MS picking so many battles, and having so many areas to spread themselves in, coupled with mounting losses in the Xbox department, things are not going to be so rosy.

Which would be a shame. Despite my preference for the PS3, the 360 has the most diverse library, the largest and highest quality library, and a fantastic online network to boot. It would be a shame for them to bow out of the race (unlikely but there are worrisome signs)

Yes.

I have trouble sleeping every night worrying about what will happen to my precious 360. Then in the morning , I donate 100$ to the poor Microsoft corporation so that they dont go bankrupt.

lol @ 360 fanboys saying 'not one bit'. You know you are. PS3 has another 7 years left in it. What does the 360 have to battle with during those years?

Nada.

Which is why you're worried.

Yet Ironically enough MGS4 is the first time most of us Manticores have picked up a PS3 controller in 2008.

The PS3 has a long way to go in terms of games before t he 360 fanboys should start to worry.

Why would 360 fans be worried? They have no reason to.

The 360 is getting more and more games (some of which have even been Sony exclusives). Cows on the other hand have been seeing ps3 games get delayed and/or cancelled. Definately not a good sign.

By that time, a new Xbox will be out with far better graphics and capabilities than this gen of hardware, and instead of 99% of games fitting on a single DVD only 95% of games will fit on a DVD. The PS3 and 360 will look like garbage against a new 2010/2011 system, the PS3 will not be able to compete against it, and you're being foolish if you think it can hardwarewise.

Are you saying wow because you are amazed by the game, or do you not know what you're talking about?
