No. Incorrect again, historically speaking. Sony didnt want out of the 7th gen, thats being made up. Look up the sources, its all there. Sony had a ten year plan for profitability on their Playstation consoles (all of them). Microsoft created a ten year plan to follow them as well. Wherever Sony goes, Microsoft will follow. Its why the 360 and Xbox One will last as long as they will opposed to Nintendo who only lasts 5-7 years. The 360 will have the longest lifespan of any console ever because they want to follow the PS3 to the very end of its life cycle. In conclusion, because Microsoft followed Sony's plan their ten year plan their console will actually be on the market for eleven years (the years head start, plus the other ten of the duration for which Sony's console lasts). This will happen for the One as well. Microsoft knows they cannot give Sony an inch because they are the natural threat.

Sony had a 10 year plan? So does Microsoft with 360. 360 still recieved tomb raider, cod and mgs5 after 10 years on the market.

....It seems you're not getting the point. Microsoft cannot lose any ground with Sony. Sony is the choice console of the world have have been since they entered the console industry. Microsoft always knew this. Microsoft had to bust their asses to get their hands on those titles that Sony fought to keep exclusive, so much so that they became Sony staples. If Microsoft can get their hands on those games they can drive gamers away from Sony. Didn't work for the most party, but they tried. The reason why Microsoft succeeded against the PS3 is because Sony screwed up their launch with their pricing. People were waiting on the fence to see what Sony would do with the PS3 and once they revealed the price they jumped ship to the 360. Again...Sony is the worlds natural choice and if they screw up then the competition will then take the reigns. If not then tough luck for the competition and Sony will gobble up all of the third party exclusivity with a streak never seen by any other brand.
