How exactly is fully supporting a console for 8 years now considered "pulling the plug"? Show me one other home console in the history of gaming that lasted that long before being replaced by its successor. You'd have to go back to the original Game Boy the last time that happened, and even then it was replaced only with an incremental upgrade, the GBC, rather than a full-fledged successor, the GBA, which wasn't until 2001... 12 years after the launch of the original GB.

The 360 is 8 years old and still going strong, and it's also home to the two biggest games of the year... GTAV and COD Ghosts, as well as a plethora of other big titles even with the impending launch of its successor just on the horizon. What were the PS1 & 2's libraries like 8 years into their respective life cycles, hmmm? What mega blockbusters did the PS1 have back in 2003, or the PS2 in 2008? How bout the NES? Other than Kirby's Adventure, nothing of note came out for the console in 1993.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
