Really bad article - that said, I do think Microsoft most likely "wins" next-gen (probably best hardware, large "core" user base, 3rd party love, subscription based model, Kinect as default, SmartGlass....). Still prefer Sony as gaming company, but I think Microsoft is pulling all the right business decisions. |
I have a question, and this is for you or for anyone with a better understanding than I. How will some of these business decisions affect the industry in general? I know some analysts predict that console owners will eventually migrate to the PC. Now I don't know if this is going to happen, but will Microsoft's decisions make it more likely or less likely? I imagine things like SmartGlass, digital sales, and subscription fees will move consoles and PCs closer than ever before. But again, I'm no expert.
I guess what I'm getting at is this: will Microsoft win the next generation, but damage the console market in the process?
What do you think, HoloDust?

I've never understood why console gamers would migrate to PC... Let me ask you this: where would you rather watch a nice movie; in (on?) a chair infront of the PC, or on your couch? I know I much rather slouch in my couch than sitting infron of my PC, never quite finding a comfortable position...

1) For FPS' the mouse and keyboard are better
2) Graphics and load times are far better on PC
3) Modding capability
4)I actually can and do use my pc as a console. Steam big picture + motion joy + TV = PS3 wireless pad and dark souls on TV.
5) I have a comfortable PC seat.
