We all know Microsoft screwed up.

Microsoft's biggest mistake was revealing the Xbox One before Sony revealed the PS4. Sony pulled the wool over most people's eyes and made Microsoft out to be the bad guy; in fact Sony was going to do the same things but saw an opportunity and changed course. The rest is gaming history.

Huh?????? The PS4 was unveiled before the X1, you have nothing that can prove Sony ever had the same intentions as MS, and Sony "pulling the wool" is pure nonsense without context. How exactly did they do that?

Sony was originally going to ship the PS4 with the PS Eye, at $500. When they saw that the Xbox One was doing the same thing they changed course to beat Microsoft's pricing.

Shuhei Yoshida confirmed that Sony waited for Microsoft to reveal the DRM policies to guage reaction. When they saw it was overwhelmingly negative they changed course.

Who the fuck cares about what coulda happen. What matters is what did happen. Besides where is your link confirming that Sony waited for Microsoft. I really doubt Sony could simply remove the PS from the packaging consider they had already begun manufacturing, the PS4 would've faced the same problem that the X1 is facing now, Manufacturers would've already signed the contracts and they wouldn't have been able to take them out without paying for the cameras anyway. Considering the fact that PS camera's are more outsold then PS4s right now, they would've at least sold 7.5 million cameras by now, and every PS4 owner would have the camera anyway.

See why your claims don't hold water?
