You could look at it that way. But my reply was to someone I know wont throw a fit if im negative to xbox. Your response to me was looking to bait me I thought wich is why I just replyed in jest because I dont want to get into it and derail the thread. And I never hide my dislike for what the Xbox has devoled into I just trying to avoid arguments. 

But I will say. I dont belive anybody ever said "COD killer". I'm pretty sure everyone has said a replacement now that there would be a vaccume. Dosent nessesaraly have to be a killer. 

And well, comparing PS3 years to PS4 years, Halo gone from like 15M sell to probably 8M or less, while several Sony IPs gone over 15M. Seems like they really didn`t need a Halo killer. And we see MS response, they can`t make games that rival Sony so they are buying publishers.

That would be an incorrect analysis.  Since Sony is also purchasing companies.  MS is purchasing Devs and Publishers not in response to Sony but instead response to the market.  Right now everyone is purchasing Devs and publishers are up for sale.  People continue to live in the Console war mindset but those wars are pretty much gone.  MS purchase Bethesda and Activision not because of Sony but because they were up for sale and if they are going to make Gamepass the defacto subscription then content is king.  I looked at Apple earnings and you just know they are coming into the game, its only a matter of time. 2 billion devices out in the wild.  You guys forward vision continue to limit you in understanding a big shift happening in the market.
