David Cole, an analyst from DFC Intelligence, believes that the Xbox 360 will "struggle" in Europe during 2008

He claims that it is because the Xbox 360 has an "urban, irreverent adult male feel; so it hasn't gained traction in the more casual gaming markets of mainland Europe such as France, Spain and Italy, where it's stalled."

He added, "that there are already rumours of Xbox 360 being delisted from certain retailers."

He contends that FPS games will continue to find a loving home on the Xbox 360, but the casual market is where he see's failure.

He also drops some hard logic on the Wii, saying that the casual console is very popular, but not have a "steady stream of games that please" the casual crowd.

Clearly, he is on Sony's payroll, am I right?
