Ok I think I have enough data to come to a conclusion on something. On an IGN round table they were talking about what company has the upper hand and Colon came up with a great point: "In general, there is no such thing as console loyalty."
I think this thread has shown that this is correct. Almost all of us have hopped between brands at some point and back and forth. People buy the best product, not their favorite brand.
I didn't buy a PS3 because I love Sony and want to keep my PSN stuff. I wanted a future-proof console with all the bells and whistles: Blue Ray, HDD, Wifi, Bluetooth. To get the equivalent on Xbox I had to pay ~$500 and I still only had 20GB and no Bluetooth. So I got a PS3 a month after launch!
Same with PS4. It has the games I want, lets me upgrade the HDD, has bluetooth, Killzone, and it costs the least. No brand loyalty, just good products people.
P.S. I am not saying the Xbox One is not a better choice for some people. The point is the "Loyal Fanbase" argument needs to just die.
