GameDaily Opinion: Xbox 360's Keys to Victory
>> From biz.gamedaily.com:
[QUOTE]
The keys to victory are in Microsoft's hands, but turning that engine over and speeding away from the competition may prove difficult if the company doesn't take the necessary steps to guarantee (Guarantee not actually guaranteed. Offer void in Japan) victory.
That said, although this article is not meant to be a predictor of things to come, we do think the 360 has a legitimate chance of taking the crown this generation if Microsoft follows these steps (listed in no particular order):
1. Slash the price
2. Offer a special limited edition Halo 3 360 SKU this holiday
3. Make Xbox Live free
4. Go acquisition hunting and seek out exclusives
5. Broaden the audience with more family-friendly IP
The Xbox 360 is a fantastic system, its product portfolio is consistently improving, and its online services can't be beat. That said, Microsoft Game Studios Corporate VP Shane Kim recognizes that his company has a lot of work to do. Hopefully, everyone else on Team 360 shares his passion. Now is the time to take control of this race. If MS doesn't crank it up to the next gear, Nintendo and/or Sony could easily end up drafting right behind them before eventually overtaking them before the final lap.
