Vita situation, PS3 red ink, lost marketshare are the big 3.
PS3's only saving grace is their ability to pump out core retail games. But again, aside from the vocal minority who praise Sony for this, sales of such exclusives are dropping fast every year (looking at LBP karting, PASBR, and Sly preorders).
Sonys success in past gens was due to the 3rd party industry more then anything else. Now that costs are high, multiplats are just the way to go. And there goes Sonys former ace in the hole. Cause lets be honest, Sony has no Mario or Halo to carry the console. |
Halo does not carry a console...MS is just as reliant on 3rd party as Sony is, just look at last gen.

It totally carried Xbox 1. Halo CE made the launch a success and Halo 2 saved Live as a subscription based service.
This gen I'd say Halo still has a hefty responsibility, offsetted by MS increased 3rd party support this gen.

lol I remember those days when everyone used to call it the "Halo Box".
