I think Sony will win because i think ps4 sale will be like ps2

in terms of market share, total sales, or both?

sales,market share i don't kow it's depends of how xboxone will do.

X1 will be a much tough competitior in the long run, this won't be a PS2 generation all over again even if Sony wins (likely on the strength of Europe). 

For all the flak the X1 is getting, and I do expect a slower start because of the price point, I think X1 is probably the console that's the more transformative for the industry. 

It's the first game console that really integrates with the television and has a controller less interface, I think it will change what people expect from consoles. 

Sony is basically going to copy what MS does IMO over time, but MS is clearly taking the lead in this regard IMO. 

I don't think integration of the television will sale XboxOne and casual will be happy with their xboxone and kinect 1 and will not buy xboxone for kinect 2,just like causal buy wii but don't buy wii u.

And Playstation is as big as xbox in America,yes xbox360 outsold ps3 but it's behind ps2 and maybe ps1.


I think MS is going to win the "jock" audience in North America, and sports/football is a huge part of the culture here.

I really do think too the TV features on the XB1 are pretty revolutionary in terms of how people with the system will simply do day to day things on their TV with. If it works like it shows on the TV spots ... MS is in business IMO. Stuff like that will have people talking around their water cooler at work. Even the PS4 it feels like just another game console, albiet a well executed one, but X1 feels like somethig that transforms the living room. 

They will need to get that price down relatively quickly though.
