Well, I have absolute confidence in the ability of Sony to keep MS in check. I just can't see MS ever beating Sony to the extent that it's not at least a heated competition.

Microsoft just wants to turn everything into a subscription. Now that as been normalized, once Sony sees that money were going to go further into subscription hell. Just like that, the console realm will be left to Nintendo by themselves while Sony and Microsoft seek multi-platform status. The ways for them to get more money out of you is endless.

Both MS and Sony (and Nintendo for that matter) have brought elements into gaming I don't like or approve of, but if any one of them had a complete monopoly, I shudder to think how much worse they'd be. As long as Playstation is around there is a limit to how far Xbox can go in their attempts to fleece consumers, and vice versa.

And like I've said, just personally I prefer Xbox to Playstation consoles in general, so I for one am glad we have three console makers instead of just 2, or worse still, 1.
