Well, hello fellow sega fan!

Now ... the disapearance of the Dreamcast may have left youbitter about Sony (I was too, I never got a PS2)... but sticking to MS now is kind of delusional at best, I won't comment on the merits of the games you listed as reasons to get a console, I figure they're as good as others taken individually, the problem is that people tend to want the best machine (whatever they want to do with the machine, games, taking pictures, making phone calls, driving around, etc.) and right now the PS4 is just the best over all console... all perceived benefits of the xb1 are more or less important, you can argue their merits with me or others around the web, but sales show that really, people who want media stuff, they either got it from their TV, their tablet, an HTPC or some Roku box...

I am not saying that the all in one experience is not compelling, I am just saying that people still want first and foremost a powerful game console that is affordable, the xb1 is now affordable (I don't even think 500$ was that much) but it's still weaker than the competition.

So, I don't see the sales trend reversing, if anything they should solidify and maybe PS4 will pick up even more steam in the months ahead, keep in mind that the only time the xb1 outsold the PS4 for a mont was last December, when the PS4 was out of stock EVERYEWHERE and the xb1 had stocks piling up in all stores (they probably just finished selling all these stocks, this is why you now see systems of different colors).

Always thought this about sega fans and MS fans^^

But give them at least till next year, I know they keep hoping the x1 will pull another ps3 miracle. This time around it wont happen cuz the x1 has not a single advantage on the ps4 like the ps3 had over the 360, but let them have that dream untill next year.



It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.
