I believe that Sony HAS won this conole war. Think about it. Nearly every gamer around the world, has a PS2. This is all due to their head-start. They weren't really competing against anyone, besides Dreamcast. And the PS2 was the better of the two(sadly). It just kept generating sales. Next come Gamecube and Xbox. They don't get very good sales, because non-hardcore gamers usually buy one system, and keep playing that one. People are not into drastic changes. They don't want to dish out another $300 for an Xbox, or $200 for a Gamecube. It's all about time. People will also disregard the gameplay, if they already have one system. Hopefully, the next console war, will have Microsoft and Sony both put their systems out at the same time.

Prince vegeta is right in some ways. Most gamers don't like change, unfortunately, they're pretty much happy with sequels of GTA. Well, some people anyways

time is right indeed. Once PS3 comes out, and theyre wont be much more development for PS2... PS2 will start slowing down drastically..... Then xbox and GCN will still be in production a lot more then PS2 will. Which gives them the heads up because of PS3 grabbing all the attention from PS2. So micrsoft and nintendo could defanintly pull out big time in the last year of hardcore development for the consoles. Then Ps3 will have a year head start and its gonna be repeated all over again...... So if you go by statisicts thus far Sony will win every war just by that head-start! which still PS3 is already getting overhyped so the sales are gonna gon boomin when it comes out! Plus there is a rumor that another nintendo isnt console is promised....

That's not fair. We can't say Sony has won the console war. We're only about to enter the 2nd year of the battle come November. The year Sony had all to themselves does not count. You can't fight a war if there is no one against you.
