They dont have a huge advantage so they need to worry about Europe still. Japan the advantage is huge (like 10+-1).

The PS3 dominates Europe except for in the UK where the 360 is the best selling console this Gen selling over 8 million units just over taking the wii.

And that link proves what? I have not seen a single spot where it shows dominate numbers. They only ever say its has outsold. In Japan its over 10 PS3 to 1 360, that's dominate. In Europe is always seems to come out around 8 ps3 to 6 360. That's not a dominate. So like I said if they held back the PS4 until next year they could end up losing a lot of sales over the holidays they they might not regain for years if ever. Japan is not going to buy the Xbox no matter that it came out before.

8 to 6 is dominating.
The PS4 should take over the United States as the number one game console - most gamers care about graphics and friends list above all else. PC nazis can die, but theirs is a niche market

PC lol
You get suckered into upgrading all the time.
It's a never viscious ending cycle.

I love it !! and the reward are the best graphics ever on video gaming.
I have to side with snake on this one. I love gaming on any platform but PC is by far the best. The modding community as well as graphics are leaps and bounds above even next gen consoles. I'm playing BF4 on PC at 2560*1440 maxed out with SLI'd 780's. If you were to compare graphics on my PC vs ps4 your jaw would drop. It's kind of like buying sideshow statues vs dc direct the difference you pay is WELL worth it.

Because obviously the only thing important about gaming is graphics and as such we should pay more for the game to look prettier even if it plays the same.
You don't HAVE to upgrade that often to "keep up"... it's just a preference.
I'm not that picky when it comes to graphics, I just want a steady frame rate.
Also PC gaming is on the rise... and I bet with the Steam Machines coming, it'll be getting a lot more popular again.
But back to the subject... anyone see those new screen shots of The Order 1886? AMAZING looking... every PS4 exclusive so far looks incredible.

lol, ok that was funny. Honestly, if MS and Sony were smart, they'd make their consoles to be way more modular and upgradeable. I know the Ps4 can replace a hdd, but would love more of a true PC format, but within the Console. So, I must be a small PC nazi deep down somewhere. Just prefer the comfort of a big tv and controller
Ok, where's that Steam box preorder again?

Yeah if that was annualized to say 14MM total units sold, I'm sure Microsoft would love to be on the other end selling 8MM units compared to 6. It's a 57/43% split.

Review of the DS4:
With everything that a new console has to offer, the controller is one aspect that is the most fixed. While the rest of the system's features, UI and games evolve, the controller is unlikely to change in any major way. With that stated, the first thing to notice about the DS4 are the new triggers. While the feel for each trigger seems to allow a degree of precision greater that either the DS3 or the 360 controller, what is interesting is the shape of the triggers.
Gone are the fat blobs of the DS3 and in their place is a parabolic, flat piece of plastic. Basically, by positioning an index finger higher or lower on the trigger, the player can emphasize either just a digital "the trigger has been depressed" input or an analog amount of exact pressure, and this is all on about an in inch of trigger surface. This was most noticeable in 'Octodad: Deadliest Catch,' and the triggers reflect a truly refined design.
The overall shape of the controller feels distinct from either the DS3 or 360 controller. I regularly use both controllers without a grand preference, but the DS4 feels like it has a bigger grip than either older controller. In my first session, the left grip felt slightly awkward, and in my second session, the right grip felt a little awkward. The shoulder buttons have changed shape as well, but the controller's grip seems like it needs a few more hours to bake into for me. It never interfered with my play, but it seems like it may please larger hands.
The new concave analog sticks, much like the triggers, feel considerably more precise. They are taller and further apart compared with the DS3, and the tall, slim nature hearkens back just a little to the N64. The increased precision is a factor of tension as well as a decreased dead zone. After the second session, the 360 controller and DS3 felt squishy, if altogether familiar, by comparison.
The four face buttons were fine, if shorter than older analog DualShock designs. The PS button is smaller, and seems cheaper than the translucent DS3 version. The D-pad seems like a nice evolution from the DS3 and Vita, but none of the demos required its use. Likewise, the Option and Share buttons share the cheap feel of the PS button, but also were not required for use in the demos.
The touch pad felt great, with its clickable surface and texture bumps. Unfortunately, I could not find a use for it in any of the demo software. This functional omission is one of a series of omissions for the demonstration that are baffling. The controller was in a metal harness that threw off the weight and made the light bar easy to forget.
Aside from wishing that the software options made better use of the controller, my only real complaint is the over downgrade in plastics when compared with the DS3. This kind of gripe is normally reserved for car interiors, but from the secondary buttons to the two-tone shell to the analog stick material, most of the plastic surfaces look like temporary choices that became final. While unlikely to affect play, the cheap, downgraded looking plastics contrast with the upgraded feel.
