PS3 of course

Sony got betrayed by everyone cause of the greed from the developers.At least most got what they deserved for it and struggle to compete in the market.
The early versions of the 360 had more than 80% failure rate and most people replaced their console cause not everyone got a working 360 back or it broke shortly after that.
A lot of consoles got banned yearly to the CoD/Halo Releases so people rebought consoles.
I don't know a single person who doesn't at least own 2 360s - I myself have 3 cause of Region lock and 1 broke down 3-4 times cause Microsoft did send crap back to me and didn't repair it properly.
And i only played on that console for 2 years regularly before i had enough of that.

Take away 20-30 Million sold units and you are at the real number of sold 360s.The sad fact is how people really got fooled by the "Free repair service" and think Microsoft is the good guy...They did send out knowingly their consoles would break and did know they used cheap parts.
The PS4 will show how much more dominant Sony can be cause they do everything right this time..Beginning from the architecture over to the 3rd Party/Game Support,pricing and Online structure.

Important question
Did Microsoft break the dominance of Sony?
I think NO - Sony broke their own necks with the pricing and architecture and no one will deny that.Doesn't matter which console you support.
Without Sony screwing up Microsoft wouldn't had the chance to get that deep into the industry.Developers like it is right now had access to both consoles long before they got released and realised they don't have the money and time to develop for the PS3.And they probably knew already about the high price.
Of course they did choose the 360 aka the console that is easy to learn and develop for and is cheap in price compared to the enemy.Even Japanese Developers had to choose the 360 cause they couldn't afford a PS3 Game like the Tales of Studios said about Tales of Vesperia.

The bigger achievement here cause Microsoft didn't do it alone(95% Sony screwing up and 5% money throwing from Micro) is how good the PS3 and Sony is still doing after all that problems.
They outsell the 360 for 6 years in a row worldwide even without changing their own style that much.They still support every genre and all parts of their community.
I pretty much believe in all the talk and praise about the PS4 - They have both consoles and know what they are talking about.Its the definitive choice for gamers and developers as it looks like.They made their homework.
