They always seem to get so ahead of themselves. They need to learn that using computer hardware may give the system a bit more power, but it also makes it ten times easier for people to rip apart and mod, and in the end it costs microsoft more money.
Xbox2 may be a good system but they just dont have the backing like Sony does when it comes to game companies, Sony has Square-Enix, Capcom and other major ones putting their biggest games out on the PS1/PS2 and now PSP.
