i dont understand why youre so sarcastic as if you made some great arguments. how do you define more succesful? revenue? microsoft beat sony's ass thanks to xbox live. games? halo 3 and gears of ware were more well known and appreciated than anything from ps3. multiplayer? hope you dont try to argue for ps3 here.

so we have what, quality of exclusives and console sales left? the former is subjective and theres no point in debating it, and in terms of console sales xbox whooped ps3's ass when it mattered. sure, towards the end of ps3's lifespan it started overtaking xbox because of more platform exclusive games and cheaper price iirc, but thats irrelevant as in the eyes of gamers the xbox had already won a long time before, in the west at least. hell the 360 defined console online culture as we know it today, i really dont understand why you try to argue otherwise.
