This is why developers are making games for the 360, it has a massive attachment rate I'm pretty sure it is around 5 or 6 now.

Firstly get your facts straight. MOST 360 users don't have problems. Secondly, you're using vgchartz which just makes this topic fail.

Depends where you are.

Real Life = Most 360's do not break down

System Wars = 100% Failure rate

TC, I really don't understand what you're getting at. What exactly does software sales have in correlation to 360 hardware failures? Not everyones' 360 breaks at the sametime. 360 failing hardware wise relies on several factors such as 1) build date 2) build quality 3) total usage 4) luck. Not everyones' 360 break at the sametime and even if it does, software sales aren't going to really change because of this unless it's a 100% failure rate out the box.

I don't trust VGCHARTS weekly us sales , but their monthly sales and million seller are based on NPD and JAPAN MC , sources like that....

Microsoft's done an excellent job of courting heavy gamers.  These guys chew through games - one or two a month - which is why their attach rate numbers are so good.  With that kind of outlay in games, sure, we get upset when our boxes break, but we suck it up and send it back because switching platforms would mean trading in our game libraries.
MS cheaped out on the heatsink and the motherboard, but they understand one thing - keep the hardcore gamers' machines working, and they'll be able to sell enough software to at least break even on those guys.

Because casuals don't go to gaming websites so they don't know about it. But now a lot will since it was just on the Today Show yesterday

I hate too say this, but i'm on my 3rd 360; and if this 360 breaks down i may end up a sony fanboy.

Instead of the three rings of death, my 360 had freezing problems big time today and then just decided not to turn on at all:((

I don't like the ps3 or the company that made the console, so hopefully when the new chip sets are installed 360's problems will be solved, I surely hope that is the case!

You know, you buy the game, the 360 breaks and you still have the game. Just because when your 360 breaks doesn't mean all the games are magically minus off the sales. What matters is the sales since the announcement of 100% defective rate from MS and the future.

Depends where you are.

So real life has 49% failure rate? That is most, right?
