Holly sh*t:

“ In the last 12 months, the Xbox 360 has outsold the Xbox Series X|S by 4.09 million units.”

Who would have seen this??

Now some people claim they want to rush out another console and start back at zero when their last two consoles have sold less than each of the two previous consoles...

It's so dumb.

Edit:

And what makes it even more stupid is that they claim this is going to be some super powerful console when their best success was selling a cheap console for people who just wanted game pass.

watch this go to slaughterhouse numbers since Kinect is about to be introduced to 360 fans. We all laugh about it, but the sales spike was real as 2011 remains the only calendar year MS outsold Sony. 360 will outsell series X/G by 30-35 mil lifetime easy.

rlow138d ago (Edited 38d ago )

My question will be to those that said the 360 only made it into the 80 million range because of the red ring of death. That people had to rebuy consoles, even though MS fixed them all for free.

Does that argument change now because 360 is ahead of the series X ?? All of a sudden all those 360 sales are legit ?

As for the sales disparity, I really think Halo coming out in the state that it did and a 1 year dry spell for big games. Hurt the brand. Do I think they can bounce back? Yes, but it’s going to be good, fun games that don’t push an agenda or censor you that will revive the brand.

They didn't fix them all for free. They extended the warranty twice. From the original, I think, 6 months to 1 year and then to 3 years.

rlow136d ago

They fixed mine twice for free. On top of that, red rings of death didn’t last the whole generation. They finally figured it out on the manufacturer side and fixed the problem. So the extended warranty wasn’t needed for the whole generation.

@rlow1

Yeah, I had 3 fixed. Not all red rings either. I think when they had the redesign and it was made a bit smaller, the red ring issue died off. Regardless. The originals still had the issue and after the warranty was up, you were on your own.

Einhander197238d ago

You bring up a good point, xbox was never as popular as people like to claim.

But even when you take that into account it's still behind the xbone, while PS4 sold almost 40m more units than PS3 and PS5 is tracking ahead of PS4 even through COVID shortages.

S2Killinit36d ago (Edited 36d ago )

The same question should be posed to those that wanted to count the sales to people who bought multiple 360s because of rrod, and in fact these sales WERE included in 360s sales.

They took the credit for these sales, now you want them to be excluded?

anast38d ago

I remember when people confused chip shortage with genuine interest.

The latest rumor is flight simulator 2024 is heading to PS5 this year.

Knightofelemia10h ago

Even if the rumor was true and if that did happen. I still wouldn't play or own a game that is classified as open world just to run into invisible force fields.

isarai9h ago

If it came to ps+ ill try it, but im certainly not spending my money on it. I wanted this game to be awesome and it just seems so incomplete

send phil, some more dev kits

we need all xbox exclusives games ported before phil shuts them down

We were often ridiculed by Xbox enthusiasts, but it’s essential to understand that Microsoft's $100 billion investment was aimed at generating profit, not merely pleasing fans with Day 1 Game Pass releases.

Microsoft should consider releasing all its games, including flagship titles like Halo and Gears of War, on PlayStation. This strategy would maximize revenue while still releasing games day one on GP, money which could then be reinvested into the future of Xbox. While a few loyal fans might be upset, this approach makes the most business sense in the long run. Even put forza on PS5 get the sales. On Xbox gamers get these games day on GP while other platforms pay full price. Win win

Huh? "We were often ridiculed by Xbox enthusiasts" Its the other way around, their ship is sinking, and they have known this for some time.
