Xbox 360 har under hela det senaste året sålt bättre än Playstation 3, i synnerhet i USA som varit det främsta loket. Men att det ska fortsätta vara så är inte lika givet, säger branchanalytikern Michael Pachter enligt Industry Gamers.
"If Microsoft does nothing, I think PS3 will outsell Xbox 360.", säger Pachter.
"However, my friends at Microsoft are extremely proud, and they absolutely refuse to tolerate the possibility that the PS3 will outsell the Xbox 360. I think they have the ads printed for the Xbox 360 price cut, and will drop them on us the instant they see PS3 sales greater than 360 sales.", fortsätter han.
"In the meantime, I think we'll see a reduction in the price of the Xbox 360/Kinect bundles (similar to Wal-Mart's "goof" last weekend), and Microsoft will use that to keep the PS3 at bay until they decide whether to match price for the console only.", avslutar Pachter.
