  "Microsoft had managed to ship 6.6 million consoles, 1.6 million more than the previous year, however this is worrying when you take into account that for almost half the previous year, the XBOX 360's weren't on sale."
  
  Wow, that isn't very good news at all and really puts it into perspective.

  Microsoft should just stick to computers, gaming isn't their thing.
  
  This is their second generation and it's doing just as bad as the first.

  They can't quit now, there's millions of Americans who have a 360, me being one of them Plus, they've invested too much in the gaming industry to just end it.
  
  But for sure...Microsoft aren't doing too well in this department. Shame, really.

    Not hard to do when there is no other console for people to buy... Now there are options the Xbox 360 sales have all but ground to a very slow triccle, with the PS3 and Wii selling lots each month.

    Well i have to agree with Existenz, Xbox was alone for a year which they got up to 7 million and only increased it by 3 up to now.
    
    DOn't forget the ps3 also surpassing its gaol by hitting over million in 6 months, faster than ps1 and ps2 did.

  the BOX is the second DREAMCAST story... Lot of good games... but incompetent business practice and strategy lead to downfall. I bought a new computer, and I tried to get Microsoft Word on it, but I realize I have to pay $200-300!!!! For a text writing program! Come on! Now I see why there are some people who refuse to get Word on their computers. I did too, and just write paper on a free open-source program now. I can't stand M$ ripping everyone off.

  Beaten to the punch.
  
  I wonder how many more articles, concerning the downfalls of the Xbox 360 there will be. Oh well, they'll make up with their computer things.
  
  Microsoft could've just made sure their console was ready to ship instead of paying $1 billion to fix their problem.

    Well if more bad news starts they could see xbox turning into a dreamcast system. Or on the flip side maybe they do find a way to fix this, but will it be enough. I mean when they fix this problem PS3 could have the games it needs to compete and climb back in with steam. And if thats the case MS would probably be over run by the wii and ps3.

  About the only good thing they've done with gaming either involves computer performance, or Halo series.

  Why do people always 'thumbs down' me for my opinion on Microsoft? Sigh...Sony fanboyism at it's best. I don't even think that comment of mine even showed anything stupid or useless, but more the truth.

  Which is why the X360 still sells as many, if not more, than the PS3? The wii is just impossible to compete with at the moment.. too new and too cheap.

    Oh yea there selling right now, if i recall correctly they lost sales for there system, sounds like there falling back rather than climbing. Xbox sales has plummeted to 60% and thats alot for a console, i don't expect them to be getting back for awhile.

  That's 60% from the fourth quarter in 2006. EVERY console sells less during the summer because during the holiday seasons, video games are sold like hotcakes.
  
  You're so *bleep*ing stupid. Seriously.
