| TheBlackNaruto said: While I agree without a doubt that both companies can screw up for Sony to lose this they would basically have to lose Europe all together or do something INSANE like raise the price of the PS4 by like $100 dollars or stop manufacturing it. Or go bankrupt....The reason Sony did so well last Gen when MS was on top was because they were MUCH bigger WW than MS and as far as gaming goes they still are. They had all of Europe, Japan and ROW to fall back on. MS does not have that luxury which is what makes me think this gen is set. I am positive both MS and Sony will have some HUGE AAA success stories and some fails as well. But for this gen to end anywhere near how last gen ended with the PS3/360 basically being a tie a HUGE downfall will have to occur with Sony IMO. Now yes I can very well be wrong and anything can indeed happen. But with the way things looks it is very unlikely...again imo. |
I agree, right now Sony would have to really screw up but it’s not like it cannot happen. Also Sony can just become complacent, not counter their competition or act the way they did at the beginning of the PS3 launch when they pretty much ignored MS and Nintendo because they thought their brand was so strong after the PS2. Personally I probably would not make any real prediction until year 3 for both consoles. I want to see if Sony stays hungry and continue to provide meaningful updates to the their products this gen. For the X1, II am interested in seeing what other strategy MS has on changing the image and perceived value of the X1.
