@nucky64: "they launched a year after 360 and at a ridiculously high price"
That was the fiasco. They gave up a huge portion of the market share because of their strategy. It paid off in the long run, but in the meantime Microsoft secured a massive lead. It took a lot of hard work and strategy revision to bounce back from that misstep, and in the end it may have been the wake up call they needed, but it was rough going for a long time.

It would be worthwhile to note that the increase is in South Africa alone. The headline makes it seem as though it was an increase across all markets, which it is not.
People are buying the PS4 because it has a strong exclusive lineup, and every multi-platform game on the console performs the same or better than on the Xbox One.

I agree. I actually thought it wasn't bad, but definitely didn't blow the roof off of the theater.
How anyone could possibly think this movie was a worse video game movie than the truly awful Mario Brothers movie or even worse, Street Fighter the Movie, I have no idea.

Your sweeping generalizations are unnecessary, unwarranted, and untrue.
I saluted her when she worked on "Californication", if you know what I mean.
"given my neutral point of view"
Assumes facts not in evidence.
That makes absolutely no sense.
Was that necessary?
Yes. That was part of the premise I was rejecting.
"Without any heavy-hitting exclusives right now..."
Wow. Well that saved me from bothering to read the article.
Sir, I reject your premise.
Well that's just blatantly untrue.
Maybe Pachter is Truefan1.
