Actually the games department has been a bigger chunk of Sony than in the past. Their electronics isnt doing that great these days and they need and its not that they dont make it quality stuff, they just make the average consumer pay too much for it when theres other alternatives. When I asked the question about what other areas is Sony majorly focusing on outside of games for the console. I said the console...I am not talking abou the brand. We know MS's major interests are outside of gaming and they made that abundantly clear with the Xboxone, byt trying to undercut Apple & Samsung in one fell swoop. That is the definition of spreading yourself thin.

Of course MS has major interests outside of gaming. Things that bring in more money than gaming. Sony has major interests outside of gaming as well. Like movies/music and selling life insurance. Especially the insurance part, since they make more money as an insurance company than anything else. You can try to sugarcoat Sony's intentions and strategy all you want but the fact of the matter is these are two big companies who exist solely to try and make money off of consumers.

As for focuses as it pertains to the console, without detailed documentation regarding how much each of the big 3 spend on all avenues of their consoles, you're just peddling off your opinion as fact.


There better be games that will bring the casuals towards the Xbox One in droves because they will not shell out $500 for a settop box console without kinect games. Yes, games are needed to even convince most non-gamers to game. Kinect will probably have 5-6 titles for casuals out of the 15 exclusives so hopefully at least two are a hit. 

As for Sony, I didn't sugarcoat a thing. If saying Sony was being gamercentric....you obviously didn't see the both of their reveals. I am just telling you what you never want to hear.

Casuals won't shell out $500 for a PS4 without some games that bring in the casuals either. What's your point? You think Sony isn't going to try and bring in some casual gamers? This gif is just as cringe-worthy as that Nintendo Wii Music E3 presentation. Yikes.


MS saved their games for E3 and were even nice enough to tell you they would before the reveal even started. Not their fault if you didn't listen.
