legs will be getting tired over time for the Xseries, just do not see it keeping up with the 360.

If Xbox Series sold less than 1.77m in December, which is a possibility, it's already behind. X360 sold 3.4m in December 2008. Series doesn't stand a chance against the 360 after this year.

They need another Year 2007 moment..

Where they gave us Halo 3, Mass Effect (Released 5 years later), Gears of War, Forza, Bioshock (Released later than Xbox), Blue Dragon etc'.

Plus a lower price on the hardware...

Xbox 360 was firing on all cylinders at the time.

Right now Xbox really only appeals to core fans, there isn't a single must-have game on the console yet that is exclusive, definitely nothing on the same level as Gears of War and Halo 3 that's for sure.

Plus a lower price on consoles? I mean let's see what NPD for December looks like but if they don't win with those sales, I don't think k lowering the price more than that is gonna work.
