Microsoft Made a Mistake Scheduling the Xbox One’s Release After PS4 details why Game Tangents thinks Xbox One should be scheduled for release before the PS4.
The Xbox brand is expanding, as an Xbox mobile game store is opening this coming July where Microsoft will brings its "first-party portfolio."
“Bond adds that they will start on the web”
This will go nowhere.
Nice knowing you Xbox. This is what happens when the house never gets cleaned.
The only this MS is expanding is the amount of feculence it sprays on everyone who just want to enjoy gaming and make games.
The best thing MS can do for the gaming industry is leave and never return.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.

I really don't think it matters.
I can't imagine too many people, if any cancelling their pre order because of a week difference in shipping dates.
This XB1 Vs PS4 thing is getting really boring, why can't we just be gamers and get over the fact that both consoles will sell REALLY well.
I don't think they have. What's a week longer wait to play the games you want
It is coming out 1 week before the PS4 in EU, which comes with Free Fifa 14...which is also a huge franchise over there and so it will sell. But it will only be available in 7 European countries and so the PS4 should sell more
Xbox mad a mistake (with) the Xbox Ones' Release. *fixed
I think that the XBone launching a week later will make both MS and Sony's marketing into overdrive. Sony will try its all to prevent the XBone from stealing the PS4's thunder and MS will try to hard to have the spot light on their new machine and on nothing else. Get yer popcorn kids.
