What didn't you know? people love to see things that are on top fall and I mean fall hard. You have Nintendo Fanboys hating Sony and wanting revenge because Sony dominated the last 2 generations forcing Nintendo to discontinue there consols twice and you Have Microsoft fanboys hating Sony because they forced MS to discontinue the original Xbox aswel.
It doesn't matter what Sony does now. They could bring us a handheld with all those specs that costs 100 euros to buy, comes with a lifetime download pass that allows you to download every NGP game that comes out all for the price of free and it even cooks and cleans for you and people will still hate on Sony and the dam thing. People just love to hate Sony.

The reality of the videogame industry is NO ONE stays on top forever. NO ONE. That is how the game works. Sony got lucky with the PS and PS2. To manifest sheer arrogance, like Sony has been around forever, and feel as a fan you are entitled to be top dog, and think everyone needs to line up with your wish for the shape of the gaming universe, is absurd.
As far as the original XBox goes, Microsoft dropped it after their licensing agreement with Nvidia ran out, and they couldn't make it any longer. At least they bothered to provide some semblance of backwards compatibility, which is something Sony threw out to save a few bucks in the making of the PS3.

Interesting, as Sony was the original company to incorporate backwards compatibility in the first place (which you have wrong about "making" of the PS3, as it was in all original models of the console). Regardless, what are you on about, he's right on several instances. Sony will get hate just for the sake of hate (much like any company in any field), but he didn't imply that Sony is somehow entitled to the top spot.
As far as luck is concerned, that could have been said for any winner of any gen. Nintendo got "lucky" with NES & SNES. Microsoft got "lucky" with the 360 (although they still aren't the winners). It sounds a little baseless either way, because every company offered something strong enough to garner mass attention and appeal. Companies stumble, and another one is there to pick up the slack, and Sony is no different. But why get all touchy on a subject that wasn't really negative to begin with?

This gen or the first ever? Because if it's the latter, that's not true.
