IMHO either PS or Xbox needs to die. The industry would be healthier. Given global sales it looks like Xbox wouldn't be missed all that much.
The incredibly stupid thing about it is that Microsoft could make TONS more cash just raking in software sales but are too dumb/proud to do so. Getting into hardware was a mistake for them and has yet to pay off. The final years of 360 were profitable but it's would still take decades at those levels to even catch up to zero lifetime investment level. And now xb1 looks like a certain decline from 360 numbers, tablets and phones continue to be a minute fraction of the entrenched competition, I just don't get it.
Their software and business/enterprise sectors are massively successful, why do they bang their heads against the wall in ill advised areas?
A great recent example was surface. Tons of losses. No rt/tablet success. Then they release office for iPad and make unholy awesome sales instantly. It's the perfect example of smart and efficient ways to make insane money. If someone else has built and dominates a market : take advantage and ride the wave for huge $$$ using your finest assets. Dont wade in and shred billions out of stubborn pride trying to reinvent the wheel when customers are already locked in with a market leader situation. Nothing to gain from that.
