If you go by that assumption leo-j, then Sony killed themselves because they were the weakest system on the market last gen, which is definitely not hardcore. They weren't content I guess with 120 million sold, they wanted 120 million sold and be the most powerful, but most powerful means expensive and you don't get to 120 million by being expensive.

Advantages microsoft had this gen that made it turn the hardcore against playstation:

Released an entire year earlier

Stole most of the playstation's exclusive 3rd party franchises

Halo became the best shooter on the Xbox leading for shooting fans to hop on the 360 bandwagon

The 360 is significantly more cheaper than the PS3

Here's the main one, PR nearly destroyed the PS3.
