Hello Xbox can you guys mass produce those fridges because I think it'll be a profitable...

@Feed -- Super powerful gaming machines cost a lot of money to mass-produce. That would be a major issue. I don't think MS/Sony/Nintendo make a lot of profit off of consoles initially, but you can't take too much of a loss right out of the gate.

To those wishing the xbox to fail... If M$ stops producing Xbox what do you think sony will do? They will use their newfound monopoly to exact huge profits to make up for all their past losses. Why? Because there will be nothing competing with them. People
who think Sony is some kinda consumer friend and would not do exactly what M$ is doing given half the chance are deluding themselves.

I think it's a cool idea, but I don't see it happening because of the logistics. I think they would way rather mass produce the same product.

They'll probably mass produce it but the only way you can get it would be online. Newegg still sells the halo reach one I think
