2008: The Year of the PlayStation 3

This is an opinion of DailyGame.net, specifically Jonas Allen, who writes:

There's an old saying in politics that "history is written by the winners." In recent console wars, from "Dreamcast vs. PlayStation" to "Xbox vs. PlayStation 2," Sony got cramps in its hands from writing so much. Whether by failed marketing or poor leadership, Sega couldn't overcome the Sony hurdle, and the original Xbox was picking up steam just as Microsoft unveiled the Xbox 360, relegating the Xbox once again to being little more than a Halo adapter for your TV.

With the most-recent console war now in full swing (Xbox 360 vs. PlayStation 3 vs. Wii), it's tempting to think Sony is finally going to be the company written about by someone else (Microsoft and Nintendo). [DailyGame.net] is not making that bet. [DailyGame.net] has taken a long look at the console landscape, and it's clear that this is the year the PS3 takes the reins.
