If MS didn`t exist,you would still be paing 600$ for your Blue Ray player that also plays games,still waiting for your games to come and receiving an average online experience. So say "thank you MS" and enjoy your system.
There are some things in this that are not true (games would be here anyway, there would be competition through the Wii ...) but all console gamers have to thank MS for
a) Bringing more PC developers to the console world. Not only to the 360 but also to the PS3
b) setting new standards for online functionality by bringing many things that are normal in PC gaming to consoles
c) Providing direct feature-by-feature competition to Sony. I do not believe one second that we would have free online play, a replaceable HD or DivX support in the PS3 without MS.
So thank you MS. (I still think the 360 has huge flaws )
