Research says Xbox 360 Elite got a negative reception
BrandIntel, a research firm focusing on online market intelligence solutions has made public its findings regarding the perceptions of consumers regarding the Xbox 360 Elite package and concluded that the upgraded system is causing more frustration than excitement.
The firm says that 18 percent of the total online discussions related to the product were brought about by negative sentiments of readers while only 7 percent emanated from positive reactions to the value and content of the deal.
BrandIntel says that the timing of the launch may have triggered such reactions and tipped consumer opinion about Microsoft‘s game machine. The researchers also said that the response to Elite is a stark contrast to the positive user response to the PlayStation 3 and Wii.
There is good news though. BrandIntel says 48 percent of Xbox 360 users are interested in buying the system or the stand-alone hard drive. The firm admits that it based its findings exclusively on web-based data gathering methods.
