Opinion: Did Sony show anything last night that Microsoft needs to worry about?

MS has everything to be er.

Again, you asume that all this time that Sony spent catching up, Microsoft was just sitting there and drinking Pina Coladas. 

No, I expect Kinect to be better, smart glass to be smarter, windows like integration. What marvels are you expecting besides  1hr of how amazing the new kinect is.

I have no idea what they will focus on... But I have an idea what their mission statement is with this console.

1. Make shitload of money!

2. Prevent Apple and Google penetration in the living room with android/smart TVs and Apple TV/airplay/iPads

3. Continue the penetration of the Xbox brand worldwide as a gaming powerhouse

Matching Sony with similarly powerful x86 hardware thats easy to develop for, 3rd party games support, few exclusives and online/social features is the easy part.  Microsoft has been doing this for a decade now. But this alone will not accomplish their mission statement.

The Money part means nothing to me, but How can MS stop either Apple or Google when they decide to occupy the living room? 

The next Xbox should be an amazing device, sadly it wont be first or second in the living room.
