OT: I agree up to a point. New consoles need to hit a threshold of launch/launch window games to prove the worth of system. If that means money hatting first/second/third party devs to get the games out, then that's the way it has to be. Droughts in software early on can turn an amazing console into rubbish.

Look at the Vita, look at the WiiU. Slow starts like we are witnessing on these two platforms can permanently tarnish a system or make it very hard to recover, leaving room for other systems to room to grow where they otherwise wouldn't.

Time will tell whether either the PS4 or XONE have enough games with a wide enough reach to ensure devs want to spend time and money developing for those respective platforms. Seems like the XONE has a leg up purely in terms of numbers but the negatives of DRM and price point are putting a damper on that which might lower the threshold of needed games on the PS4.
