it'll happen its just a matter of time now


I think the general feeling is....

it doesnt matter any more.  

MS... mission accomplished.

Yeah, when Sony catches up to MS, it doesn't matter any more. But when MS is ahead it matters.

Right.


no... it doesnt matter any more because of the timescales involved and the install base.

The 360 has over 50m out there... it has increased its market share massively over the last gen.  Not a single Sony fan would have thought that MS would have achieved that this gen and not a singlke Sony fan would have thought the 360 would still be ahead of the PS3 after 5 years.

But if it makes you happy then I also think that it doesnt matter any more that the 360 is ahead. Both have an install base that is sustainable and both have done well.    

If some Sony fans want to trumpet dragging themselves from 3rd to 2nd as some kind of victory one day in 2013, when the next gen will be upon us and the 360 is 8yrs old then good luck to them.    I guess expectations change from gen to gen.


I do agree microsoft have performed considerabally well this gen compare to their first atempt, but i wouldnt say mission acomplished as im sure they want Sony out of the race compeletley, i would also say they stole valuable market share as in america, id say they got that nailed, but ext gen should work on EU, mabe not bother with japan lol
