Do Bush and the Iraq war influence Xbox360 sales in Europe? (Poll)

So weekly sales of the 360 in Europe continue to lag behind sales of the Wii and PS3. Obviously there are many factors influencing console sales, but I often find myself wondering whether Europeans' antipathy towards G. W. Bush and the anti-Americanism surrounding the Iraq war are among those factors! So, a poll for European gamers ...

o_o

That's something really interesting to think about.
Not many will respond though, I think.

:| Hmmm that's like weird.

Something else I'm unsure of is where the soldiers get the XBOX 360's I constantly see them play in media footage.
o_o America? Europe? Asia? Rofl. D: Who knows.

maybe...

but the real question is WHY DID I EAT SO MUCH STUFFING TODAY!?

It's relative to system wars, technically.

I don't think you understand the topic though, really.

dont understand? new here i guess, this is just another pathetic excuse to start a culture war.

Is it because of a couple days in 1945 that the 360 and PS3 dont sell in Japan?Heil68

Maybe. I can see people subconsciously being like "American garbage."

It's not relative to System Wars in the least.

Really? The causes of sales of a particular system in comparison to other systems isn't relative to system wars?

Hm.

I challenge you to make sense of that. :]

Look at the "choices" you're given.No matterthe choice you make, Americans are warmongers.

This kind of generalization has no place in a gaming forum where no matter your nationality or place of origin, we're supposedly connected by our love of video games.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

"Yes. I LOVE the 360 because I love Bush and warmongering Americans"

Learn to read, and then answer. this thread is perfect for America hating hippies and mullet wearing red necks to wrestle over.

I thought we were talking about how it is relative to system wars. Not how the TC is OBVIOUSLY biased.

This is SYSTEM WARS, kid. Not CULTURE WARS.

So first Japan doesn't buy the system.

Lemmings response: "They don't buy it because it's an American product and they are nationalistic."

Now Europe doesn't buy the system.

Lemmings response: "They don't buy it because they don't like the fact that America is at war."

Did it ever occur to you that not every culture likes the same games as you? The reason why the 360 is doing worse in these territories is because different types of games appeal to different types of regions. So please stop making these stupid conspriacy theories.

Re read what I said about how it is relavent to system wars about 8392 more times.
That should do the trick.

Until then, just leave if you aren't going to add the topic. :|
