Xbox Founder Believes Xbox One Won’t Catch Up To PS4
Ed Fries is the former vice president of game publishing for Microsoft. In the late 1990’s, he lead the team that developed the Xbox, and went on to play a key role in making studios like Bungie, Ensemble, and Rare develop games exclusively for the console.
Talking with the Puget Sound Business Journal, Fries laid out a very honest and blunt assessment of how he thinks the cards will fall during this console generation. “The two sides say nice things about each other; they compliment each other’s cool games,” he said. “It looks to me like most of the excitement is kind of over in the console war for this generation. It looks like Microsoft is gaining a little traction back, but PS4 got a really early lead that will be hard for Microsoft to catch.” When asked who he thinks will be in front at the end, he said “I think it’s PS4 by a nose.”

I'm surprised these are even interview questions still. Like the first part of the article said, most of the excitement is over.
In then end, it all comes down to who's on what. It doesn't really matter what I'm playing, as long as I am playing with some friends and having a good time.

RIAA Xbox should bring back 1 vs 100, then we get to watch bus loads of people regret buying the wrong console and come back to Xbox just to play it!
I'm ignorant on the topic, can you enlighten me on 1 vs 100?

Ahh, people still talking about sales, when it makes little difference.
The Xbox is still months ahead as a console itself over PS4 and it will continue to be like that till the end of the generation.
