Plus the developers always have to compete.  It's not like Sony can just accept crap with no repercussions.  They will stay competitive due to pc and having to entice future console purchases rather than sticking to the old ones

Someone who gets it.  Sony isn't just going to have free reign, just because MS exits.  In fact, MS being in the market as introduced some pretty nasty things to it, and that's not even including the crap they tried to introduce this gen.  No, Sony will still have PC and Nintendo to compete against.  They price their console too expensive, and people will just get a Nintendo system or a PC.  And like you said, devs are always trying to up the ante to be the top dog in terms of graphics and gameplay.  So, it's not like their first parties will just give up and put out crap.  It also helps that the guy in charge of their WW Studios is an avid gamer, so he's not going to want his guys pumping out crap he can't stand to play.

Personally, I think Sony has seen what works very well this gen and is going to stick to it.  Offer a powerful console for $399.  And keep up the great 1st party support (they've always done this, though.)

They've also introduced some great things to it.

 

thismeintiel, I believe you and I have discussed this before in this thread here: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=228020
