At least 4 threads I've read with links to what Microsoft has said in response to the Sony conference reveal on the 20th.
In case you don't know what I'm talking about:
Majority of Uk Consumers won't know about Ps4 reveal
Ps3 isn't as good of an entertainment console as Xbox
The stakes are increasing for both Sony and Microsoft. In case you guys do not remember (I barely remember) Sony came into the Ps3 reveal very cocky and arrogent, due to the crazy amount of success that the Ps2 had against Microsoft and Nintendo. They overpriced their console at the now famous $599 US DOLLARZ. Microsoft on the other hand, came out with the 360 as "the nice guy". Microsoft stepped their game up and innovated online console gaming as well as other things and ended up storming out of the gate in 05 with the 360.
In my opinion, the tides have turned coming into the new generation. Microsoft has turned into "the bad guy" that cares more about money and success (gimicks, kinect, charging for online play). Sony has regained the respect of the gamers with Playstation Plus, great exclusives, and free online. Nintendo continues to be Nintendo by innovating like crazy and creating a unique gaming experience. Nintendo just freakin' prints money so I'll leave them out of the discussion (even though the Wii U is a bit slow currentley, it'll pick up).
What do you guys think about Microsoft's mentality and attitude towards gamers?
