Believe me, Jerry, the only way I can try and make any sort of sense out of what`s going on in this ridiculous format feud is to examine decisions and happenings from every perspective.

One thing I should of added on the whole gaming market topic is, and this is really very important, the Xbox 360s dominance is really only in America. In the rest of the world they`ve barely sold four million units and by the end of the year the PS3 will be likely gaining on this number fast. I`m not surprised the Xbox is met with dismal sales in Japan, but I am still surprised Europe hasn`t taken to the console in a really big way as, aside form the high failure rate of hardware, Microsoft really did create a fantastic online service and it has a wealth of great games. Europe itself in recent years been considered the largest games market in the world (it`s certainly the most lucrative territory), so it`s ultimately the one to watch closely if anyone is to get an idea of who will ultimately take second place to Nintendo`s first.

I`ll leave it there before George tells me to p*ss off and take these topics to a games forum (though it`s pretty impossible to find a game forum where one can have a logical discussion, so I take what I can get). smile If you want to keep an eye on games console sales then www.vgchartz.com is a helpful resource.
