At beginning of the "next" generation of consoles. The XboxOne was a disappointment. Ps4 was a success. Fast forward to 2016, Ps4 still a success, Microsoft crawling their way back to the top. The Xbox one slim should've been what the Xbox one should've looked like from day one! Ps4 is releasing their Ps4 pro, without warning and months away from release. Everyone is shocked and disappointed because. - It was revealed out of no where. - It isn't going to be released around the same time as the next Xbox meaning it isn't going to be as powerful. It's always all about the "graphics" - Possible pay for updates. - It's coming out way too soon. I remember predicting back when Ps4 was winning. The only way the Xbox one can come up on top once again is if the next next generation probably 5 years from now is more powerful and better than its rival otherwise they've lost many die hard fans. Or If Sony screws it up by releasing the next next generation of consoles too early. Microsoft doesn't need the Xbox, they can cut everything any time and quit the gaming industry, because they're a software making company they don't need the Xbox. However Sony, needs the PlayStation, they need to make every instalment a success. If they pull a Microsoft they can go bankrupted or go back to selling expensive Tvs with the logo "Sony" on it.
