But they are early. Sony has been early before as well and paid for it in lost market share. Remains to be seen how slow new Xbox One sales will be. Looking back at 2001 and Bill Gates announcing ("the one box for your living room" (paraphrased), at E3, xb1 seems pretty consistent with their vision of the future. SInce I mostly single or co-op play and I plan on keeping my Xbox, and the Xbox games I plan to complete; I do not feel that Sony's reactionary emo affects me at all. Many people who have Xbox achievements and who are invested in them will continue with Xbox One. The great functionality in managing the gaming environment and the xb1 exclusives are going to eventually make the those currently crying the loudest foul to eat dirt. Yeah, MS and Sony know what they are doing and the emotion that Jack Tretton leaked out sideways when he said "you can play the PS3 without being Kinected" (in a snide tone of voice), tells me that they are frustrated with consistently falling behind MS innovation and being forced to copy MS. I have never observed a MS excec put down or use sarcasm against another company. They plan their work and work their plan. There are no saints in the business world, but as a consumer of Sony products and a fan; I was disappointed in Jack's unprofessional behavior. Sony is a much more diversified corporation and I am thinking, a larger company than MicroSoft. And Sony Corp is having financial probs. Still no excuse for cheap shots, Jack Tretton. And I gotta laugh, the frustrated Sony fan-boys will call me a sheep! Oh the irony.
