Fascinating analysis of market

Unless more quality, highly desired, and exclusive titles
are released for the Xbox, we believe that the installed base of the Xbox will fall behind the Gamecube.

Funny, this analysis from the Bank of America, for use by people looking to invest in video game companies, comes up with the same analysis I've been repeating "like a broken record." Maybe they're a bunch of Xbox bashing fanboys.

And in other late-breaking, eye-opening news...

Unless we all eat food, there will be mass starvation.

Uh-oh. If you don't mind, I'll go to a less controversal thread...perhaps one dealing with abortion or the death penalty.

Well, if a Bank of America analyst says it, then it must be true! We should be seeing the press release about Microsoft's capitulation any time now...

Can we just sticky this thread so Scandal doesn't have to keep repeating himself?
