1.Yes Everyone is working on a new system.
Sony also, I think they will be prepared to release it as soon as MS so the same thing cant happen again.
2.
Maybe they will have 2 consoles at the same time but I dont think this will happen and the reason is quite simple. Only ONE last gen console was strong enough to last long enough to be in the next gen. But I dont think the market is strong enough to carry PS3 Xbox360 Wii and PS4 Xbox720 and WII 2 at the same time. I dont see that happening sorry. To keep a console at life so long in the next gen was achieved just by Sony but maybe this Time it will be Nintendo because they are marketleader and the nature of their customers which dont care about graphics so at best I see Wii living long into next gen. But the 360 is already at 159k I dont see it living another 5 years.
3. The Xbox360 wont live as long as the PS2 the PS2 is the best selling console the Xbox not. Infact I see it living until 2012 but not longer. And then both or maybe een all three will release new consoles.
4.
ofcourse I am guessing their motivations because they dont tell you their real intentions. Everyone has to guess. I cant see an Xbox before 2012 the reasons I wrote are perfectly fine.
5.
They made their money back ? Lol maybe but thats not the point they dont want to sell it they want to dominate the market and spread their standards. But that would be considered as a failure and thats not what the Shareholders wanted to see. They invested money Billions. years ago so if they sell their gaming devision what exactly they will sell. The Name ? Or what ? Infact you have to be a giant company to keep this thing running not everyone could buy the Xbox Games Devision and what are the assets. Its mostly the name plus the rights to software titles and devellopers. Considering the inflation it would be a bad deal. And MS wouldnt do that ever.
But what exactly is your point ?
What do you want to say ?
That the Xbox 720 is coming next year ? Or that the Xbox willbe released before the PS4 ?
You are just guessing like I am so what exactly want you to discuss ?
You just want to tell me that there is another point of view or that my opinion is wrong ?
