Jane Wells of CNBC Writes:
"Forget the analysts. Forget the NPD sales figures. Forget the CEO's. I live with the ultimate expert on the video game industry-my 16-year-old son.
He not only plays video games, he watches every show about them on G4, he participates in chat rooms about them on the internet, he competes in a variety of games on a variety of platforms. He always tells me the latest trend three months before I read about it in the media.
But he's never been a PlayStation fan. Sure, he had a PS1, but as soon as the Xbox came out, it was game over. He loved the Xbox graphics, and once he was old enough to play "Halo," he loved the games. He graduated to the Xbox 360, Xbox Live, "Gears of War," etc. He even hung in there during the overheating Xbox "red ring of death" phase. Other than a two-year detour/obsession playing "World of Warcraft" on his computer, he has always been an Xbox fanboy. Sony just didn't have great games."
