E3 Speculation: Could this console gen not end the way some people expect?

[Cheebee]

Alright, yes this thing is the best ever since sliced bread. It's gonna attract tons of casuals and will totally revolutionize the way we play and think about games. 3rd Party developers, Western and Japanese alike, will back it with their full support, and every person on the planet will want to buy it. It's gonna be one of the biggest success stories in videogame history and will place Microsoft squarely in first place during these 'console wars'. It's a guaranteed hit.

But seriously now. Come on. I was just being realistic. We all know how this is gonna end.
