well they missed out on 3million sales and over 100$ million revenue. however the most important thing to note here is that Microsoft was very much scared to take a risk here, while sony was not.

Right, like they were afraid to take a risk with Kinect and 20+ million sales later, or Halo, or etc. 

My friends and I tried Heavy Raid, neither of us really got into it.  Looked neat, but meh with the gameplay.

According to you:

Microsoft takes risks to catch casuals, Sony takes risks to please traditional gamers.

If a sci-fi shooter like Halo is a risk, you can say that about any new IP.
