| NeoRatt said: Microsoft is confident. Why wouldn't they be since most gamers (including myself) expected them to be in distant third and "on the ropes" for this generation by now. As for their pricing, new stuff is always priced high. It is a little business law called supply and demand. Sony was only mocked earlier in the generation because they very few gamers can afford to pay $600 for a console, and in the first year the only real highlight franchise was Resistance and Motorstorm. Microsoft is confident but between Sony and Microsoft, Microsoft is the only one that is focusing on delivering hard core games since March. Sony fans are in quite the exclusive/timed exclusive losing streak. It started in March after the release of God of War III and will end when Socom 4 and Killzone 3 ships in February-ish (At least Microsoft got third parties to release Mass Effect 2 and Metro 2033 in that time frame). Since the release of God of War III Microsoft has won the exclusive/timed exclusives with Splinter Cell Conviction, Alan Wake, and Crackdown 2. For the holiday's Microsoft will put Halo Reach and Fable III up against LBP2 and GT5. The sales war for this holiday is already lost for Sony. Of course Microsoft is confident. |
I thought most people believed this generation would result in:
PS3>>>>>>360>>>>Wii
