The PS4 Will Fail at converting all Xbox 360 Fans to Sony. Ever Since the Ps4 was first release, friends of mine began to believe that the PS4 will take the whole Xbox Fanbase. heres a few reasons why i believe this Will not happen.

1)Micosoft exclusives, With great games like halo and gears of war that are not on any sony platforms

2) Xbox live, ever since Sony got hack many still believe that there online infrastructure is bad and that Xbox live is more reliable.

3) The Controller, many believe the Xbox 360 is the best controller since the SNES. And the Xbox one only improves on that.


So do you still believe that the PS4 will take the whole Xbox Fanbase?

1)  That depends on personal taste and is true of every console.

2)  That's probably true.  Even if PSN and LIVE were exactly equal, some would believe otherwise.  However, LIVE is the much more dangerous ecosystem.  It's absolutely filled with predators and social engineers.  Because of the way Microsoft links accounts across services, a Microsoft account can be a valuable thing to steal and sell.  Grab your info off facebook, keep calling until you can trick a support rep, and bam.

3)  This one kind of makes me chuckle.  I'm sure it's true, but as someone who has been playing since the Atari joystick, you could tape some buttons to a cat and I'd still play the hell out of it.  All the controllers now are good.  The games are far more important.

As for the last question, no, I don't think anyone thought that.  People stick to what they know and have invested time in.  Most people aren't going to give up their friends list and achievements and just start over.
