kinda like Xbox did to PS2? This is an interesting spinoff perhaps. If PS3 had been close to Wii in performance a lot of third parties would most likely take that huge install base over 360 and created a potentially fatal situation for MS considering significantly less 360s would have been sold. Gaming would have been kinda held back for a gen but if MS was pushed out then less polygons for one gen would be a fine price to pay. |
The online features would have also been unrecoverably crap given the fact that Sony wouldn't have had a year to look at Xbox Live on the 360 whilst designing the PS3. I would say personally it would have been an advantage for Microsoft. Had Sony gone with a multicore version of their PS2 architecture developers would have slit their wrists. Essentially we would at this point be talking about how Microsoft can clean sweep the game console market after having locked up pretty much any gamer who cared about online.
Tease.
