Sooooo... how is Sony focusing on the same thing Microsoft is focusing on going to result in MORE variety? o_o Won't both companies just be doing exactly the same thing, actually limiting how varied videogame content becomes? I'm admittedly a bit curious if the word Variety is only being used because the OP's heard talk about Sony's varied content in the past, and is now trying to 'make a stand' without actually knowing what the word means.
Now, I think the argument could be made that Microsoft is doing more to appeal to a multiplayer-oriented crowd, as Sony's offerings definitely focused on single-player experiences, so the meat of the OP does have a point. But when you have one platform focusing on multiplayer, and the other on single player... that's ACTUALLY what variety is. You seem to be pushing instead for content to be homogenized, an 'EVERYTHING should be what I like!' outlook that can only serve to hurt the industry, not help it. =P
In short, no. Microsoft can and should do its own thing, and Sony can and should do what it's doing now. =P
