I only thought of this recently but the 360 is selling worse in its second year out than its first year. I'm pretty sure this shows the brand does not have the support to win this gen granted the Wii and ps3 are on their first year so we haven't seen their second year sales but usually consoles sell better in their second year due to a price drop or a stronger library the 360 has both and is still selling worse also the year isn't over yet so I may be a bit premature in pointing this out.
To get to my point Console sales usually increses year on year till they hit a peak in their 3r or 4th year when they usually hit the $200-250 price point(which may or may not be helping wii sales). If the 360 sales are less thus far than its first year sales with a lower price and their strongest game(halo 3) already out of the way it will finish last in the end especially when you consider its appeal outside North America is limited. Anyway just some system wars fodder for some people to argue about....let the debate begin on whether this means anything or if I am completely wrong on my assesment..
