MS leaving the console race would be good for gamers.

I am 32 going on 33. I remember the ps2 just fine, but that was all speculation and turned into an urban myth.

and you completely missed my point.

PS2 was not the most powerful of the generation but they have made the most powerful system since. Why? Competition of course. If it was just sony and ninty, I think sony would have took a different path.

Clearly the missle thing was a joke, but you missed the point.

Sony made the most powerful system it could at the time, so powerful infact these silly stories came out.   Sure more powerful system came out AFTER the PS2, but that's a given.  Sony created a very power system (just look into PS2 coded shaders for an example) even though they doinated the industry and had no idea what anyone else was plotting.

Now you say it's a joke, but gave a link to prove your point and said I may be a bit too young to remember. Right, that was totally obvious that you were joking. I actually thought you were joking 'til you called me a bit too young. 

 

Anyway back on topic: I disagree. Competition is better for the gamers.
