Between your first and second paragraph there's a gap… of the size of a year.
You are really ok with Sony being radio silent when others are active?

I get that Sony dominated this gen, but MS showed that they can rival Sony.

Don't take Sony winning next gen for granted. With a new gen anything can happen - and MS won't be stupid to commit the same mistakes.

A year of radio silence isn't a big deal if played right. Firstly sony is still releasing at least 2 games next year. So its not like they aren't doing anything at all.

I think something is clear here. They cannot come and talk about anything new outside what we already know because everything new is on PS5.

And with the right stealth marketing.... a leak here and there, declerations of a great PSX 2019. Sony will firmly still have mind share leading up to PSX 2019 and then all they have to do is announce the PS5 and talk it up a bit and show a couple of trailers. And thats all anyone will be talking about right along side whatever MS shows because I believe at e3 219 MS will show the XB2.

Unfortunately for MS, they require sony to make some realy big stupid mistakes for them to have another 360 effect. That remains to be seen. 

But it is a big deal.
It's not just about Sony. Nintendo and MS will be very active, aswell. And if the rumor about XB1's discless version is true, they will be even more present in people's minds.

They could talk, at least, as much as MS; they could still have a booth to play their games and that would still be enough to make headlines.
When E3 comes, either you won't hear about Sony or you'll hear bad press.

Leaks won't change things.
Don't forget that you'll also hear about MS, too.

When you are not present or don't make yourself noticed, someone will take your place.

I don't think you are giving MS enough credit.
It's true that they took advantage of Sony's mistakes, but they had a great product and strategy behind it.
PS4 also took advantage of MS's mistakes, btw. 
The big difference was that, this time, the company who made the mistakes didn't correct them as fast - and payed the price.

I'm not saying that MS can easily beat Sony, but if they play their cards right and come out with a better strategy, they will give Sony a run for their money.
