So there is now war. The press will make it look like that. And gamers feed off the press with their own articles and comments.
But there is no war. Microsoft is on a whole other level, Sony is just trying to stay in there because playstation makes money. To quit playstation would be losing money.
Not to Knock sony but it's the truth sony does not know what they are doing. They copied Nintendo with Playstation.
Tried to copy Microsoft with an modem add on for the ps2. Copied Xbox 360 with Gamer profiles achievements and online
Sony is and always will play catch up to Microsoft. I am not going to lie the Kinect was inspired by the Wii.
But look at playstation move it's a direct copy Sony never has been original. except with what they know best cd with playstation dvds with ps2 and bluray with ps3.
I am not here to put sony down just showing the truth and facts just look at their history to see that.
Nintendo has always stepped out and try something new and they have not always been successful but at least they tried something that nobody else dared to try.
Microsoft whole thing is all about online. Look at the Xbox 720 Microsoft is again treading into new territory with a possible always online console.
Microsoft looked at the success of the wii and copied. Yes all companies will copy success.
Microsoft started the trend with online gaming now all game consoles must have online or will look like a joke.
Nintendo started motion control gaming and now every console must have some kind of motion control or you will look out-dated.
What have sony bought to the table?
Once again not here to bring sony down but somebody please show me their contribution to our wonderful hobby.

what did sony bring? they pretty much made gaming cool in the 90's by bringing in mature games, if it wasn't for sony, gaming today would be a whole lot different
sony pretty much paved the way for hardcore console gaming and proved it wasn't just a childrens toy.

This could all be true but you totally missed Sega in your argumentation... Their consoles also appealed more to older gamers.
|
sega failed, big difference
|
Still they delivered a lot of very good games and many people had a lot of fun with their games and consoles. If Sony ever quits gaming, would you also didn't even mention it in 20 years? I doubt so.
|
same could be said for microsoft or nintendo
|
So you actually would leave out Sony in 20 years, if they quit their business? Also I was talking especially appealing to more mature gamers, that's still the topic.
