Xbox just doesnt have what it takes to win this. This whole set up is so 2001-02 again.

Sorry man. I think I will have to side with the financial analysts with this one. A one year head start on an installed base is pretty hard to beat especially when the systems are virtually identical and the X-Box just has more games and third party support.

The PS3 won't be a money loser but it won't be the market leader either. If one of those systems has a game you can't live without then take that one just as if you have tons of games in one system but nott the other then brand loyality makes sense. In the end the X-Box is just going to outsell the PS3 though because it has more games and better third party support for the same money.

Dude, you're as "ambivalent" towards Sony's victory as Bush is convinced of our victory in Iraq.

As in, you're clearly on one side, and that side doesn't quite jive with the reality-based community.
