How can any console survive with (extremly) poor sales in Japan?  I tell you one cannot one simply cannot.  The clock is ticking toward midnight...tick tock tick tock...and when it hits 12:00..something goes into a long quite sleep

Personally, I\'d already be suprised if they managed to get their initial shipment sold by the end of its lifespan........

So if it had to be anything, what would finally make Microsoft pull the plug on the ol\' X-Box?

If x box live fails I think thats when they will pull the plug.  Honestly,  who would want to see x box go on but nintendo become 3rd party?  Not me

:laughing::laughing::laughing::laughing:

Thats the funnyest thing i have heard all year

If being out Sold by the PS2 at 44 to 1 is a Success then i woulden\'t want to see your idea of a "a Complete and total rout"

Now Quddus you person of poor Music Taste please rearange this into a well know saying.

Good question Tom. I don\'t think the failure of xbox-live would be enough. Say xbox gets outsold by PSone this coming Nov-Dec, I\'m not saying it will happen but it is quite possible. It would then be obvious to nearly everyone any objectives MS had planned with the release of xbox were done for. Even if such a pathetic scenario took place I wouldn\'t put it past MS to stick it out long enough to launch xbox2.

The Xbox is one of the most success U.S.A system in Japan.   Averaging 3,000 in hardware sales a month in Japan (or was it a week?)  I don\'t know but it\'s still a great system.  :P

Its a shame its not doing so well i want it to suceed; but lets face facts  the xbox graphically produces the prettiest games i have ever seen on a console but they are the most boring piece of crap to play.example the new bruce lee game  is a waste of time its the games that break the system get those developers to make some good software and xbox will sell . They need a good fighter  a good rpg morewind doesnt count because thats a pc rpg
different people play pc rpg  a good platformer and they are in buisness its not the pretty pictures we want we want games that imerse us in there world make us drool to play it like final fantsay 7 dang the graphics the hieght of cheesy. the games story line had me hooked like a crack addict on friday night microsoft are you listening

Dont make me laugh.  Even so, it cannot outsell playstation 2 on a weekly basis.  That\'s sad coming from a system that would destroy PS2.

A great system?  To a select few.  A failure? To the business world.
