Thats good. Good for them...thats what they came into the industry to do. I saw it coming a mile away. Im surprised Comcast hasn't been yelled out yet. Remember I had been saying for years they were going to turn the next Xbox into a TV/Cable box.

Now that we've climbed the mountain to see the other side, do you think this is a good thing for the industry?

I personally believe that it is. In general, I have found myself to enjoy much more those things that appeal to the mainstream. Examples are hit box-office movies like the late Iron Man 3, Oblivion and a few others. I am hoping to see that kind of entertainment integrate into the world of video game entertainment. This far a lot of the content has been made by gamers and for gamers. I'm looking forward to see what the non-gamer world can bring to the world of gaming to bring in new blood to the industry. This far Sony was pleasing me with this with games like Uncharted and Infamous, but I am looking forward to see what this paradigm shift in gaming will bring to the content we see as a whole.


Multimedia and OS has always been Microsofts strength. Sony nailed games their first gen in. Both consoles play the multimedia that matters, but one console overdoes it by trying to hold console gamers hostage (without them knowing) in their battle against Apple for synchronicity between PC's, tablets and TV's and MP3 players.

Microsofts attitude towards MP3 players were soured because they couldn't outsell Apple and couldn't even dent their sales....so they left. This is the dent in Microsofts armor for anyone who says they will stay in a foreign industry just because they have more money. Heart...is better than money.
