I know the 360 is looking like a ****ty console now, but a long time ago, back in 2004-ish, the ps2 was the one with that problem. They still managed to somehow sell a handful or so despite that.

The console with the games wins. The console with the most users gets the games. While the ps3 is still starting up, the 360 has a lead that developers already used to make games. Nothing is over yet, but MS would have to orchestrate a blunder of unknown proportions to finish 3rd this generation.

Japanese gamers still aren’t lining up for the Xbox 360, to say the least, but Microsoft is confident that it can win the console war without winning over Japan.

So true,and that does bother me. The old Xbox still had great potential.
