The run of X360 was almost twice of the Xbox. Correct for that. Also PS2 shipped 150 million units by which metric the whole 7th gen was disappointment because PS3 and X360 managed to ship slightly more combined. But yes - 360 was a failure. We got stratification of the published, ballooning budgets, total homogenization of the games. Every abusive trick ever from publishers on the consoles, red ring of death, needlessly complicated online survives (the whole MS points crap), XBOX live gold subscriptions and the console barely broke even at best from every report I have ever read. The decision for the HDD to be optional was "brilliant". The first few revisions of the hardware were poorly made. Instead of the ugly but perfectly cool able and boring xbox we got something elegant, pretty, noisy and overheating.
