A lot of people laughed at Microsoft when they first entered the market, but at least they already had an internal games studio which had worked on several PC titles already, and they could call on several PC developers to port games to their platform due to the ease of it. Plus, Microsoft has far more money than Apple. I must have missed the part where Apple ended up having more money than Sony.

sony has a fairly loyal base. they could just make a really crappy system next round and it will sell fine. id be willing to bet they would still be able to convince a lot of people it is the most powerful.

Yeah, that strategy isn't working so well for Sony THIS gen, I don't think it will work for next gen.

no game history?
you are obviously ignoring all those video editing games and graphic design games they have. not to mention the best seller:
"why is itunes not working" game
the expansion to "itunes"

RIGHT ON!

this post get's a 9.9/10

Im not even gonna bother reading the OP because the title is simply stupid.

Youre wrong. Sony will not leave. No one wants an Apple console.

lets hope not..gaming has never been apples forte, and no i dont think the iphone produces graphics as powerful as the DC...im betting that samsung might give video games a try in the near future though

Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.
