Its possible, I don't see why not.
.Generations no longer exist. It's about platform. They lost the war in the battle of the last gen. The platform war is just beginning.
You wish
Zero chance.
Explain why not? If MS puts out a two hit combo that is practical, I can see them doing some good numbers where it counts. I already said that the console side stands no chance but a carefully planned XBPC and XB console move could do wonders for them.
Did their store suddenly become successful? Did their brand rise from the dealer in Europe and Asia? It's ludicrous.
Exactly. Maybe Sony gets hit my meteors.

It's not a question about will or will not, it's a question about how badly MS want to be market leader.
If they really want it, no one can stop them.
Its hard for xbox to win because the Playstation brand is so deep. Seriously comparing the stables of each company I jst dont think its possible. If Microsoft released the greatest lineup of games, the most powerful hardware. All Sony has to do is release the next masterpiece fron naughty dog, or something like spiderman, days gone, death Stranding. Something from their worldwide studios just puts them on the map with gamers.
Ms has a chance in NA. No doubt, but it just takes one game to even the odds. I still think the last of us was the biggest momentum shift ever. Not just from last gen but it carried over to this Gen in a big way. Everybody was talking about it in a time when the 360 was just cruising on 3Rd party games. Why wouldnt somebody buy a playstation system for Atleast one of those games. Example right now is death Stranding, I walked in to my work and people were talking about it. Its not just nostalgia (crash bandicoot) but something out of the norm is what PS is about. It will never go away,ever.
An Xbox branded PC sounds pretty awful...it would be better to put out a Surface console.
I dont think meteors is needed. It wasn't involved when Playstation Portable lost to the Nintendo DS by a huge margin.
I don't know. I don't think it's really important either.
MS already won next gen.
When Sony start a new gen from scratch, MS will have 40m+ install base because they don't start over.
America is a bigger market than the rest of the world combined. The 360 selling better in the US and UK alone is why it outsold the PS3.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that the last numbers we got were when both consoles hit 80 million, of which the 360 did first.You got sources for that?
I didn't see his post. Now that I have, I'm just laughing at both posts.
People can't face fact that XB as a console alone won't win.
I think you are severely overestimating those games and forgetting how dry Xbox has been in terms of announcements. If MS did in fact have the greatest lineup, between both released and upcoming games, a Days Gone wouldn't mean shit.
Found the sources.On mobile but I recall Microsoft posting their 80m consoles sales acknowledgment several weeks/months before Sony did the same for PS3.
I don't know where the narrative that the PS3 outsold the 360 came from but it's never been accurate iirc and I only recall it being a widespread belief at the start of this gen.
Ahh, so there were more numbers released, thanks.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_game_consoles
You need to read the notes on each of them though, to get a better picture.
Either way they are almost too close to call a clear winner.

EU I think it could still be possible but incredibly hard since like you said, MS has been floundering there since the inception of the Xbox.US? Of course. Worldwide? Lol no. MS has had three generations to build up a good base in the EU and Asia and sales have only gotten worse (I do believe its only selling double digits in Japan).
Not likely. They only really cater to a certain type of demographic.
Anything is possible. We got trump as president. There are no absolutes.

Not to mention the inflated sales numbers from RROD. I bought three 360s and only had one PS3- a 60 GB that still runs fine.

You're mistaken. The 360 outsold the PS3.
It was erroneously reported near the end of the generation that the PS3 had outsold the 360, but this was not correct.
It's always funny to me when people go "ah but the Xbox only sells the best in America," as if that matters.
