Plummiting Xbox sales push Microsoft revenues down
The company also made $1.1 billion less than it did last year. According to Microsoft, this was "due mainly to lower volumes of consoles sold and lower video game revenue."
All-in-all, the Entertainment and Devices Division, saw profits up and revenues down. This was due to a reduction in marketing costs, and the latter was a because of dwindling demand for Xbox 360 consoles.

I feel no sympathy for this: "The company also made $1.1 billion less than it did last year". BOO HOO. You are still a multi billionaire company. Xbox 720 - or whatever the new xbox will be called will raise the revenue, unless it sucks.

Most people i know are selling the 360's and getting tablets and PS3's instead,they always have them on the local for sale pages on Facebook and in the papers etc Probably sick of the same old thing.As for the new consoles flying off the shelves,how the hell do you work that out as no one has even seen one yet or any of the games?? I'm sure most people don't just happen to have around 4 - 500 quid lying around just desperate to blow it all on the new XBOX.

AR15 Once the new consoles come out, sales will skyrocket again.
As AR15 said, just wait for the 720.
The 360 has been out for quite sometime so there sales will begin to fall overtime aas a good portion of people that game have the console they prefer.

Once they get that new console out I'm sure they will earn a sh*t ton of money. :D
