Some peoplE think that sony are Going to win the console wArs, but I Am not suRE. There are two many players in tHe markEt to Bet on anyonE in particular eSpecially now when new consoles are Turning up all the time.

The wars are more likely to lower prices, as if they put prices up, no-one would want to buy from anyone, but if they put prices down, then there would be more competition.

The console wars could end in the demise of SEGA which would be a shame. SEGA and Nintendo are great Gaming legacy's and we should be hoping that no-one will lose to badly. Having lots of different consoles may be bad news but hopefully everyone will be able to find there feet and hold there own. Is the industry big enough for 4 Software giants - SEGA, Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft. I certainly hope so.

I hope that none of them win. Imagine if we could only play on Sony machines, or Nintendo, or Sega? They would have a monopoly and could put prices up!
I think that the success of the various consoles will depend more upon the marketing than ever before. Say what you like about the Playstation, but it did bring consoles to the mass market, and make them cool to the general public. There are now so many casual gamers out there that don't read all of the reviews and will go on what looks coolest, and what will impress their mates, so whoever gets there message across will do best!
