Sony's playbook? Doubt Microsoft is looking to lose money on their gaming division...

LOL So they didnt follow Sony on the DRM Policies? The dropping of third party app usage from Xbox Live? The price point? Creating Games for Gold because of the value Playstation Plus brings to gamers? 

Oh wait no. Of course you have to cut Sony down even though they are actually helping the cause of the xbox gamer by helping show Microsoft how to please gamers. I tell you if Sony ever died you guys would see what the world would be like with just Microsoft running shit against Nintendo. It would be the least creative times ever and would there would be so much nickel and diming it wouldnt even be funny. Without Sony to teach them right from wrong, this gen could've been such a monsterious fail for Microsoft even for the most ardent Xbox believer.

And yet just days ago Sony was busted trying to lock SP downloaded content behind a paywall. Maybe one day you'll understand all these are companies, none are worth getting emotionally attached to, and all would love to find ways to squeeze every last penny they can out of you.

As for the article, idk, does it ever mention anything they "use from Sony" aside from not locking subscription services behind a paywall? Because plenty of devices did that long before PS3.

Sony is thinking like Microsoft. Dangle a carrot and the people will pay you to get what they want. I bitched about PSN Plus but eventually I got used to Sony (like Microsoft)having to use payment tactics to survive. They didnt copy MS but they redefined what it meant to have a premium service. If they truly copied MS then PSN Plus would be Xbox Live.

Even IGN wrote an article admitting just recently that Microsoft is using Sonys playbook to beat them. Its the same thing with the 360. Microsoft learned from Sony in the first generations that amassing third party is the key to success.
