| Chris Hu said: MS didn't lose the war since they sold the most software this generation both physical and especially digital (since the 360 has more digital content then all other home consoles combined). Also the 360 was never sold at a huge loss like the PS3 was for the first couple of years of its life cycle. PS3 still was the big loser this gen they sold more consoles at a loss then MS and Nintendo combined. Selling the most consoles doesn't make you the winner selling the most software is what matter since that is what generates the profits. |
That's definitely a reasonable conclusion; MS came in as the underdog whereas Sony had massive brand loyalty following PS2. However, I feel as though MS has alienated many of its loyal consumers. Xbox used to be pretty balanced; a place for great single player games, JRPGs, and of course multiplayer games. Now I feel as though MS has shifted focus on XB1 for multiplayer games only.
I doubt you will see many JRPGs on the XB1 or any interesting single player exclusives. That's why I'm jumping ship to PS4. I'm not even remotely interested in the XB1 because I don't really care about multiplayer or shooters.
