Beat in sales, possible but at this point highly unlikely.
Take out, virtually impossible unless Sony does absolutely everything wrong from here on out and I don't just mean with the PS4. You're not taking Nintendo out in a single generation, i don't think it's possible. They are an incredibly conservative company and they have enough money in the bank to comfortably ride out several entirely failed home console generations.
This is ignoring the fact that MS is getting almost universally bad press at the moment with the exception of relatively die-hard fans. If i was a betting man I would say Sony is going to win the next generation fairly comfortably, how comfortably depends on how well Nintendo gets their act together in the next 18 months as I still think the WiiU has the potential to be a very popular second console. MS is going to have work very hard from here on out if they hope to see anything like the success of the 360 and I think they run significant risk of running a fairly distant third unless they take major steps to alter their current trajectory. |
1. It's still debatable that PS4 specs outdoes the X1; or that it would provide any meaningful diffrence. Just look at E3 and most games look better on X1 than on PS4...why is that?
2. X1 had better exclusives and more of it.
3. MS has deep pockets to make sure the system succeeds.

1. you were there and saw em' running on the system? no.. you watched a shitty livestream of the event like everyone else with bad quality, we don't know jack untill we see it running face to face... or in this case monitor/TV.. what 'looks good' is pure subjective.
2. Subjective, had better exclusives is not a fact, more of it? heard reports that it was the other way around. Anyway.
that is only your oppinion, not facts.
note: i'm not saying that it is wrong to think that way. (you might be right on the 'and more of it' part)
3. If they want to own the living room they are able to do it, if they REALY want it. MS will take milions in loss if that is the target for this generation, if that is 'this is successful' is up to debate.
Personally, if they took the 'push more money into it for it to work' approach, i wouldn't call it a success, if it was, you wouldn't have to do that.
just my 2 cents.
