    On the Xbox they were losing $126 on every console sold, I've heard it's a pretty similar price for 360's, hence why selling more consoles will only lose you more money. It's millions of games that they'll have to sell to get profit

    My local ASDA said they'd only had 12 Xbox 360s delivered... Pretty poor if you ask me.

    First point yeh youre exactly right, each console they lost like $200-$300
    They try to get as much consoles out there as they can, then get a profit off accesories and games.

    And secondly, if you actually have an x360 youre stupid, you can wait half a year and get a much better console. Its overly priced, the memory you will never use, and youre paying for nothing. It has no brilliant things about it.

    The internet thing is the best thing it has whereas the revo brings a whole new world to gaming.

    But not everyone is into the gameplay or the Revolution. Its just fancy graphics and as many accessories (Dvd player, mp3..etc) they can pack into the console is what the gamers are after.

    Thats just stupid, i would rather play a game you laugh at and really pass time with instead of getting a bona over graphics. And maybe its just me but i already have a dvd player, and i dont come from the richest family.

    You can't call people stupid for wanting a console. I love my Xbox, and I hope to get one sometime. I probably will wait a while; I'm sure it won't be too long before they come down to about £200 for a premium package. What is stupid is people buying them for £600 from eBay.

    As with the Revolution; I'd love to get one, but I'd also wait a while for them to come down from a bit from their launch RRP.

    Yeah, the price of the Revolution. Going to be less than the PS3 and Xbox360. So it won't be that expensive. I'll get one if the price isn't too ludacris.

    Yeah but to be less than the PS3 and 360, that means it only has to be less than £219.99.
