RE: Boycott Xbox 360 Well... They could... However unlikely. I had heard that they lost money on the original Xbox... But eventually made it back up in game sales. Or something like that... I cannot remember.	Chris Storms 1st In Command of SG&C Mercenary Immortal 11/30/2005 12:01:07 PM Level: 20 Experience: 32580 Total Posts: 1382
RE: Boycott Xbox 360 Actually, they lose money with every 360 they sell.  Assuming they have discounts on some things, the total cost for them to make a 360 estimates aroun 526$.  Yet they sell them for 400$.  They lose 126$ on every system sold.  But they don't care, because A) they can afford to sell millions of 360$ and lose hundreds of millions of dollars, and B) They'll easily make it back through game sales. If I could find the article that talked about this, I'd give you the link so you wouldn't think I was BSing you... I've got my (gun) sights set on you.

RE: Boycott Xbox 360 <I heard the same thing. However, I didn't mean they can't lose money on a single product. What I meant was that they can never achieve an overall financial net loss.>	Straph Anging Uber-l33t Ninja Immortal 11/30/2005 7:10:59 PM Level: 1 Experience: 0 Total Posts: 17
RE: Boycott Xbox 360 Well, in that aspect... you are correct.	Chris Storms 1st In Command of SG&C Mercenary Immortal 11/30/2005 7:18:03 PM Level: 20 Experience: 32580 Total Posts: 1382
RE: Boycott Xbox 360 I refuse to even buy a Revolution or PS3 on release. -no- system has ever been flawless on release. So 'll probably wait almost a year before getting any new system.

RE: Boycott Xbox 360 Smart thinking there, laddy. They just don't have them in development long enough. It's like Ian Malcolm says in Jurassic Park... "You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could and before you even knew what you had you patented it and packaged it and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox, and now you're selling it, you want to sell it!" Okay... So it doesn't quite fit... but it works.	Chris Storms 1st In Command of SG&C Mercenary Immortal 11/30/2005 10:55:30 PM Level: 20 Experience: 32580 Total Posts: 1382
RE: Boycott Xbox 360 Wow! Who cares about the 360's price when you have the PS3? Witness!	Stasis Archer Bio-Shell Archer Banned (Spamming) Immortal 6/4/2006 1:52:36 PM Level: 1 Experience: 0 Total Posts: 1308
RE: Boycott Xbox 360 Microsoft is just as bad as Sony. Sony wants $600-700 for the PS3. Which is completely outrageous. I'm not buying one. Granted, I'm a huge Playstation fan, Im just not made of money.	Jake Conner 3rd in command of SG&C Mercenary Immortal 6/11/2006 1:23:11 PM Level: 19 Experience: 31340 Total Posts: 1088
RE: Boycott Xbox 360 Whoops, I think I worded my post wrong. I was saying that we shouldn't be worrying about the 360's price when the PS3 is so outrageous.	Stasis Archer Bio-Shell Archer Banned (Spamming) Immortal 6/11/2006 4:13:12 PM Level: 1 Experience: 0 Total Posts: 1308
RE: Boycott Xbox 360 Yeah... That's just freaking outrageous... But don't you know those Sony fanboys have been saving their pennys for the last several years and they'll buy it as soon as it comes out. I do have to say that quite a few games on it look really nice, but for that price, it can have them.	Jonathan Katarn Archer Immortal 6/12/2006 9:57:47 PM Level: 1 Experience: 176 Total Posts: 262
