have they broke a promise before?
They could be correct, they know their strategy better than anyone else here.
Tease.
well, let's wait until the end of this gen and see.
Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

They're in competition, too say anything less would be mock humility. Projecting confidence to your team and your consumers is desirable. Whether they can back it up is another story, but intent and goal setting is an important step
the only reason MS is where it is is because the 360 came out a year ahead of the PS3, if they were released at the same time the PS3 would be trouncing it right now, but eventually the Sony machine will dominate the sales and MS will end up flat on it's bootie.
Notice they didn't say anything about making a comeback against the Wii.
They have all conceded to Wii's dominance!!!!
jk, of course they said that. Same reason both MS and Sony continuously say Wii is just a toy and not directly competing with them. It's just what companies have to do for PR.
I believe the xbox division of this gen will at least be profitable... so that's a win, even if they end up being 3rd.
And that's the only thing I need is *this*. I don't need this or this. Just this PS4... And this gaming PC. - The PS4 and the Gaming PC and that's all I need... And this Xbox 360. - The PS4, the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360, and that's all I need... And these PS3's. - The PS4, and these PS3's, and the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360... And this Nintendo DS. - The PS4, this Xbox 360, and the Gaming PC, and the PS3's, and that's all *I* need. And that's *all* I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one... I need this. - The Gaming PC and PS4, and Xbox 360, and thePS3's . Well what are you looking at? What do you think I'm some kind of a jerk or something! - And this. That's all I need.
Obligatory dick measuring Gaming Laptop Specs: Sager NP8270-GTX: 17.3" FULL HD (1920X1080) LED Matte LC, nVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M, Intel Core i7-4700MQ, 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3, 750GB SATA II 3GB/s 7,200 RPM Hard Drive
I don't think it's the first time MS do this. It's more than obvious they would do this, what did you expected them to say? "Hey! we are loosing this war and we don't have any chance to win it, so buy another console!". Not a good idea if you as me :P
Whether they will be second or third is irrelevant. They are in a much much better position now than they were with the original box. Sony on the other hand...
Currently playing on PS3: God of War III
Currently playing on Xbox360: Final Fantasy XIII
Currently playing on NDS: Chrono Trigger
from the looks of thing, it now looks very much possible, with all the exclusives that ms is buying plus all the formerly ps3 exclusives going the the xbox360, plus it being cheaper...
looks like micrsoft actually had a plan and not randomly tossing money around
