Forums - Gaming - Why do Americans prefer Microsoft over Sony ??

I'm American, and I prefer Sony. They make reliable products with low chance of breaking.

Do they? Perhaps some do? Xbox 360 got a huge head start and did very well in the US, not because it's MS, but because it basically had no competition, PS3 launch was a catastrophe, not to mention a year later. Xbox 360 had no competition for a long time, it built a solid base because folks didn't really have anywhere else to go. This time around however, it's a level playing field and Xbox is getting predictably trounced, despite having had a very large base in the US via their last console. Sure, MS is doing anything they can to try and catch up, dumping tons of money into it, but they don't get a free ride this time.



Because Microsoft is American, and Sony is Japaniese. Doesn't take much more explaining.



Did you see how many amazing deals they does this holiday,outside of holiday ps4 will sell more then xbox one and ps4 will still outsell xb1 lifetime in usa



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

as far as im concerned, they dont, its just a lot of people switched to 360 last gen, and now their ecosystem/friends are there they chose to stay.

Here's one http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=144252&page=4. The gameroom thread came up again, it's a few pages back now, this thread of course and a few minor ones from earlier this month.
