When Sony entered the videogame market they too were considered "loaded" compared to nintendo and especially sega. They were making hardware yes, but didn't Microsoft already make the OS for the Dreamcast? Both thought it would be profitable to enter the videogame market on their own...
My point is that I really don't see much difference between the 2.
Also, I think with MS being a software company primarily, and Sony being hardware...next generation will be much easier for microsoft to dominate sony.
I mean, is sony going to annouce a new media format that is going to replace bluray? Or will they invest so many resources in to another CPU after the cell has been such a non factor this gen? I personally think software should drive videogames, not hardware...but thats just me.
Don't get me wrong...its nice to have hardware features. Last thing we need is another manufacturer to stop advancing console features and concentrate on how to get more people who don't play games to start playing games. But concentrating on hardware only is not the answer. Perhaps sony changes their approach by ps4...
