Indeed, which is why it was such a feat for Nintendo last gen dominating like they did. However, launching at the sam eprice (or worse, more expensive) than a PlayStation, in the same year, has always been a battle for anyone that went that route. This will be Microsoft's 2nd time either coming in ith them or launching after.

However, Sony hasn't been Microsoft's biggest hurdle for the 8th gen, thus far, it's themselves.


I remember seeing a documentary about Microsoft developing the 360 and they were scared to shit about what Sony would launch with and the  industrial design guys  were thinking long and hard about what would work. They are especially watchful after the first gen, knowing they had to launch early.

Yep, PlayStation has always been a force to be reckoned with, and even with Sony's countless mistakes with the PS3, they were still able to top MS and have a shot, though slim, at catching the Wii. 

With the PS4, any 7th gen advantages MS had are long gone, so this news isn't the best right now. Have they completely lost - no, not at all, but the fight will be much tougher this go around.

Even I see they will not outsell the PS4. Now, the Xbox fan agenda is beating the Wiiu for 2nd, and hoping the X1 makes a profit, so essentially everybody wins (except Nintendo :P)



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
