Microsoft joined the industry not because of games, they wanted the multimedia. Their battle with Sony is no different better than their battle with Apple. Its a massive battle for multimedia dominance that they crave.No one can have the living room but them.

You keep saying MS had no interest in games yet MS keeps making powerful gaming machines, putting out quality games, brought attention to indie developers on consoles, and raised the bar in online gaming. MS has made great contributions to console gaming and you eventually have to accept the fact MS is just as focused on games as Sony.

Sony has shown more interest in dominating the living room than MS and Apple. In fact, Sony once did a damn fine job dominating the living room. But they fucked that up and chased many fans away with the PS3.

Games are easy for them, all they have to do is buy them. They didn't really care about games in the initial stages. The only people who cared about the games were the initial team. The people who had the power only cared about the multimedia implications of knocking off Sony because they tried to partner up with Sony and they turned them down.
