In think its obvious why they are the first to 10 million. They came out a year early, and in Europe, nearly a year and a half early.

Yeah, it’s fine in the UK… but very much not so fine everywhere else.

The 360’s not doing that bad in Europe, Psycho.

They might want to start using it then… before they get utterly crushed and stores start removing them from stock.

Hey Mattrick… you’re flat out wrong. It’s not going to happen unless you manage to completely re-invent yourself in Europe.

…and you wont spend the money to do that.
