Sony fans 'dominate' the internet, is the most ludicrous thing I've ever heard. The truth is as hard as it may be to accept, there are simply more Sony fans than Xbox fans. Three generations of consoles -- 300,000,000+ consoles sold versus 100,000,000? That doesn't begin to account for the length of time Sony has existed versus Microsoft.
Sony is synonymous with Televisions, Walkmans, PCs, Electronics and mostly Gaming. Microsoft is synonymous with PCs, Operating Systems, Halo and just last generation (Video games).
Sony is winning these polls because the vocal majority of people who will pre-order or buy close to launch are voting. While I believe the 'real' numbers will be higher in Microsoft's favor, I don't believe it will change nearly as much as people believe. 70/30 PS4/XB1 is what I believe it's more realistically at currently. The people who are so skeptical of these polls, realize the statistical significance of these right?
How many times in your life have you watched a multi-billion dollar company completely do an about face on a product they were releasing? That's exactly what Microsoft did. Exactly. The only plausible, rationale explanation were that their preliminary sales data and research was so god awful atrocious that they realized drastic changes had to be made to regain some ground. Whether or not that ground has been made up, is up for debate but it certainly doesn't seem like it.
