You're right; it looks like it might end up larger than that.I'm going to give a 2:1 sales ratio a 1:4000000 chace of happening this gen between PS4 and Xbox One...

One company is going to lose 1.1 billion dollars... the other company has more cash then the first company is worth... I'll let you figure it out. There will not be a 2:1 sale ration this generation no matter how many sony ponies get out of their stables. It's also not healthy for the industry.
Certainly, but its clear at this point that it won't be as viable for them moving forward. Furthermore, there was a lot of talk from the party faithful about something like $1 billion being invested into first party development. If that's the case, then I'd like to think that they're well one their way to achieving this. Keep in mind that Sony's best years with the PS3 didn't start until 2009, nearly three years after the launch. Microsoft may prefer that strategy, but its one that benefits the guy in the lead, not the runner up.
Money hats can help buy time until those new studios are ready, but as a predominantly Sony focused gamer I eagerly want to see Microsoft compete in this space. I don't care for Halo, Gears, and Forza, and since those titles are such a vast majority of their first party output, I obviously lose interest. Losing Black Tusk to a (imo) tired franchise isn't a great start, either.

Does that mean we can stop reading your fear-mongering about how the company you despise, Microsoft, will be selling off the XBox brand?

$299 without Kinect would be pretty tempting.
Are you actually serious dude?

As a consumer, do you feel more comfortable supporting a company that doesn't actually depend on you to survive?

Please tell me, how has that "unlimited cash" helped Microsoft in with their phones and tablets, or even Bing?
Sony's worth about 20 billion dollars right now... Microsoft has 30ish in the bank. Microsoft is a healthy company and their competitors are unhealthy... the likely hood of Sony being able to push into a 2:1 lead over the length of this generation is really really really unlikely
Also I own both the Xbox One and the PS4... I want both companies to be competitive all the way through and I think both will be. People who think Sony is going to revitalize into the all consuming dominant brand need to go back into their stables.

That's what makes the fact Sony didn't cheap out on the system, and have a stable of first party studios all the more impressive. MS could have built a beast but they went cheap, sold out, and didn't invest for the longterm. Meanwhile the company in financial trouble gave us higher spec for less money.

No... I don't care.... if Sony had made good decisions with their other products we wouldn't have to even worry about the Playstation brand being under a company that can't seem to do anything right outside of make games and sell insurance

That has nothing to do with the what we are talking about though... 2:1 sales ratio isn't happening... not only is it not going to happen, but not a single person on here should wish t to be so... competition is what created Uncharted and Last of Us it's what created PS+

If we go by sales this year WW it's already 2 to1 .

Also, please stop conflating "competition" with "sales parity." They are not the same thing.
Sony Ponies? Really?
Who the hell thought "Sony Ponies" would be a good insult?
please point to where I typed unlimited.... don't get upset... we NEED both consoles (preferable all three) to do extremely well because in the end that is what drives things forward.

It's GameFAQ's talk. Heard it from there all the time.

They are already losing £100 per box here in the UK, I'd say they are prepared to do whatever it takes. Unlike Sony who sat on their asses for years before cutting the PS3s price.
Firstly, it is happening. Its the understood sales ratio RIGHT NOW.
Second, sales parity is NOT competition. Please stop confusing the two because they're completely irrelevant. Here's a pretty decent post that should help you tell the difference moving forward. I would suggest reading it BEFORE returning here to comment.

For your sake.
Your throat has to be exposed in order for someone else to "go for it." Not gonna happen.

pretty sure they are even or better... certainlly not 5-6 games and multipul years of XBL

Just an observation, but hasn't it been that when one company is leading heavily the other typically has to innovate and be aggressive. It's what happened with the Xbox to 360 and with the PS3 to PS4.
Drop it by $150? That'd be cray.
edit: Sarcasm, I get it now.The BLOWNY jabronies are in for a rude awakening when the full weight of war chest™ comes down upon them and crushes the nogamestation 4!
Ugh, everyone should have to read this and take a short quiz on it to be allowed to post here. I'm so tired of the sales parity posts. They're just idiotic.
