New Xbox 360 Sales Tactic?

...In a statement that surprised gamers and non-gamers alike, Peter Moore of microsoft Xbox, endorsed Nintendo's new Wii console. Speculations circulated whether this statement by Moore was a genuine praise or a calculated move designed to offset the launch of Sony PlayStation 3.
