Then you find out that you spend your meter in an unnecessary attack and your opponent finishes you with solid gameplay just because you forgot the basics? Well, that is pretty much what Microsoft did. After all what the 360 accomplished they had everything in their favor to win this gen, but somebody at some point had to say "Why dont we try a new move" |
That's quite far from the truth. Microsoft most certainly did not have everything in their favoru to win this gen.
Last generation Sony had a disastrous launch, high price, difficult console to develop for, launched much later tham xb360 and still managed to sell as much as xb360. Not only that but a large number of sales were due to the huge success of the kinect, which faced a fate similar to wii's motion controls. People were all over it and then stop giving a damn.
Ms was bound to lose this gen. The only difference was by how much exactly.
