Building the most powerfull hardware at cheaper price is not earning it?
|
Taking the safe route and riding off competitors mistakes is arguable that it isn't earned but just winning by default :P
I can't stress the term "arguable" enough here.

I have always said that while Sony does make great consoles and even greater exclusives, they have never dominated because they were revolutionary outstanding. The competition just sucked SOOOOOOOOO bad.
Example: Gamecube.
|
They dominated because of the third party support.

Seriously before you spout that off think of their competition from the consumer's point of view:
XBOX:
-Games looked a little better
-It was huge with a hard to use controller
-Within a few months of its launch it cost $100 more than the now $200 PS2
-The PS2 had already been out for 19 months!!!
Gamecube:
-Games looked the same
-It couldn't play DVD's, CD's, or other media
-It looked like a Hasbro Kids Toy
-Within months of lauch the PS2 was the same price
-The PS2 had already been out for 18 months!!!
