2 consoles considered dead(none dead last gen)


I guess you weren't around in 2006/2007. PS3 was very much dead and people were digging Sony's grave.

See how this is a marthon not a sprint and things can turn around a few years into the generation?

 

 

 

well i knew the ps3 had its problems at the beginning but it got 1st and 3rd party support along with a resonable price cute

wii u has no 3rd party support and is still(for some reason) expensive



People need to stop bringing up the PS3/X360 as some kind of weird justification for the XB1 coming up from behind.  It's a completely different ballgame this time around.  Before, the two consoles were on fairly equal footing...except the PS3 had better hardware and Blu-Ray.  This time around though, the XB1 has a pretty massive deficit in power compared to the PS4, and the public (you know, those people who DON'T read VGC?) KNOWS that it's underpowered!  They also know that Sony has more games in general available RIGHT NOW (most people don't differentiate between "AAA" and "indie", either) and they know that the biggest games are going to be on Sony's box (Destiny, Batman, MGS etc).

 

Xbox isn't going to magically sneak up on the PS4.  They have to do it with the strength of their exclusive games lineup, and so far, that looks EXCEEDINGLY weak.
