This will give Microsoft gezegde

 This will give Microsoft a chance to become a real competitor to Sony. Game players are passionate, but they're pragmatists. If they have set aside $400 for the PS 3, they'll probably pick up an Xbox 360 now. For the long run, it means the game industry will be more competitive and Sony may not dominate as much as it did before. We have a real rumble waiting in the wings.

 Moving from the theological to the practical implications of Sony's snafu, the company couldn't have picked a worse time to offend its customers. Sony has already conceded a six-month head start to competitor Microsoft in the upcoming market-share battle for the next generation of game consoles. Microsoft's Xbox 360 is expected to debut this fall; Sony's PlayStation 3 will not arrive until the spring of 2006.

 We expect a price cut for the PS2 later this year. We believe that Sony will respond to Microsoft's introduction of its next generation console with a cut from $149 to $99 some time before the November 22 Xbox 360 launch, ... We think that Sony has positioned itself to lower price by reducing the production costs of its console when it redesigned the box to a smaller format... Should Sony choose to discount the PS2 to $129 or even $99, we would expect a dramatic lift in PS2 hardware sales, and a corresponding lift in PS2 software sales. Our model forecasts that Sony PS2 hardware sales will be 1.8 million units higher this year compared to last year.

 I think Microsoft is waiting to hear Sony's plan about the PSP and then we may hear something about the Xbox 2.

 I think Sony will do a price cut in the fall. Now, if Xbox were to catch fire and look like it's going sell 5 or 6 million units, then Sony may change it's mind, but I don't think that's going to happen.

 [Even though Sony helped bring about the digital revolution, the company has failed to adapt to it. The standardization required to manufacture consumer digital products undercut the value of Sony's branded products. For example, the Chinese and other low-labor-cost manufacturers, using the same computer chips, could make the same DVD players and digital TV sets as Sony for a fraction of the cost. The result was a commoditized rat race that became unprofitable for Sony. When it became clear that Sony had to] revolutionize itself, ... from an analog culture to a digital culture.

 The introduction of the Xbox 360 was a defining moment for the industry in 2005. However, it goes without saying that the full impact of next generation consoles on the consumer market won't unfold until later this year when Sony and Nintendo's video game consoles hit U.S. retail shelves. The real story for 2005 was the incredible expansion of portable gaming. The GBA continued to realize stellar sales, and the introduction of the DS and PSP to the market brought older gamers to the portable format.

 Sony does not have an online position. Microsoft has had four years of practice, and Sony is coming from an absolutely standing start.

 What everybody needs to understand is Sony is not competing with Microsoft. Sony's competition is with Toshiba.

 From a hardware standpoint, the largest exposure outside of Sony itself is Microsoft, which could benefit if the company is able to overcome supply problems with Xbox 360.

 What's extremely important is that Sony is out there now and is delivering increasing quantities of product. It's pretty clear to me that if you look at the 128-bit segment, Sony is going to go up and everybody else is going to go down, only because Sony has a 12-month head start. But when you look into the next year, that could change depending on who's got which software.

 If you look at where the market's going, they're not just video game machines anymore. Microsoft is not getting into this to sell video games ... They don't want to give up control of the living room to Sony.
