Honestly I think in the higher end market, Microsoft is going to drive Sony out in the next 5-6 years by creating a better piece of hardware, which in turn will make them the console of choice for "hardcore" players.

Sony can't afford to price match Microsoft anymore, and Microsoft knows this. A couple of years of losses upfront on the 720 and they can bury Sony for good. We're starting to hear some reports that seem to indicate MS is "going for it" at the urging of some developers (probably Epic and some others). So I could see a situation where the 720 has say 4GB of RAM + a beefier GPU versus a Sony Orbis that has 2GB RAM/weaker GPU.

Nintendo will retain a good portion of the lower end/"normal person" (lol) market, but MS will make inroads here too with Kinect.


Considering Sony is a hardware company, I don't see Microsoft able to pull that off. Plus if the rumors are true and Sony is going with all AMD, devs will have no problem making games for the PS3. I have a feeling the specs will be a little higher on the final announcment for the PS3.

The PS3 is already out and we know the specs xD.

The almighty CELL has still to rise up and defeat humanity. This is what he is talking about.
