Even then, Sony has something out of those technologies, Blu-Ray, if this is Sony's last game console gen then they can be in the knowledge that Blu-ray succeeded in the HD market. What does M$ have?

 

M$ wouldn't have gained anything directly, however you can say they've destroyed (or at least weakened) the Playstation brand . Many believe the threat of Sony's PS cutting into Microsoft is the reason they got into console gaming in the first place.

Now, I'm just confused. In what way was Playstation ever threat to M$?

 

No no, there is no such thing as destroying a brand.

Micrososft is focused on ditributing softwares/contents via the web and via XBOX Live. That is the strategy, what they consider the futur. Microsoft NEVER invented anything. It is a pure copy of the Apple model with the duo iPod/iTunes.

The strengh of MS is its grip on the PC market (Software and technologies) and the internet.

MS vs SOny ? -> This is the challenge between a software company and a technology company. It is about different business models.

This domination about the number of consoles sold is the wetdream of lifeless fanboys.

I'm pretty sure that MS can achieve better revenues with less consoles on the market. And THAT IS WHERE the question of the pricing cut becomes interesting. 

IT KEEPS FUELING THE WAGER ! Not what it the best console, but who took the right track to the futur ??

 

See my point ? (Finally some intersting debat above that Fanboys shit which initiated this post).
