first off im not saying this in a mean way towards you.  But just the fact that you even posted this a topic shows how games have changed in my opinion, mainly because of xbox.  ever since 360 started getting bigger gamers have been subjected to halo and gears.  both very big name games and good games dont get me wrong.  But it seems to be the norm now that a  console can only release a certain small number of hugely hyped games (HALO, GEARS)  and that has to be your main reason for liking a console. 

Sony on the other hand have released countless amazing title this gen but for some reason you can only think of gran turismo to name for this article??  And I know why its because like you said, you only think short term.  Thats the problem, you cant think like that.  Next year sony has around 10 confirmed first party exclusived with 3 or 4 more rumored games.  xbox has gears and maybe forza.  But for some reason all anyone talks about is gears 3.  when 10 or more amazing first party exclusive title are coming for ps3 all of which are probably better quality then gears 3 will be, and I dont just say that with no reason behind it.  look at the quality of the top sony games(uncharted, god of war III, Gran Turismo, Heavy Rain, Killzone, Little Big Planet, Modnation Racers, white knight chronicles, MAG, Infamous,) versus xbox (Halo, Gears, Fable, Forza), its undeniable that sony has better quality games even if you dont like that particular genre you can just tell.

But to finish off this post I will say the reason I am a fan of sony, is quite simply they have never let me down. Ever.  each console they release they support it with a wide variety of well made titles by there own talented studios, they dont pay millions of dollars to steal other consoles exclusives at the last minute (Xbox).   Sony knows how to make consoles that last the test of time.  PS3 was built to last ten years, microsoft just claims theres was after they relized how long ps2 was selling.  Really I could go on for pages about free online(and equal if not better in some aspects to LIVE), Blu-Ray, better quality games, superior procesing power, wifi included with all models, hardrive included with all models, reliable consoles (no rrod), better variety of games, battery free wireless controllers, 3D, playstation move( the most accurate and applicable to traditional games motion controller on the market)

You can say all you want about opinions and you can like certain types of games more then others I agree with that.  But even if sony dosent come in first this gen in sales like they always do.  But I think its safe to say If you dont see that sony has one this gen in terms of quality then there is something wrong with you.  In one word I am loyal to sony because of QUALITY...

This is were Sony fails, to American is a product to well buit...

Perhaps next Gen Sony can earn a lot more money launching a LEGO CONSOLE... you buy the driver, then the brick, the HD, the adapter, and so on.... all proprietary and over priced...

So they can launch the VG for 300$ a cameo for the real 600$ for assembling and 50$ per year (in a 10 year plan that is another 500$)... this way Sony would make 1400$ revenue per console, not 600$ (with 250$ loss in fact) in launch or 300$ (with less than 30$ profit) nowadays...

With kinky Console and fanboys you win the war, not with quality.
