Microsoft Seeks to Knock Out Sony

"During an interview at Microsoft’s Worldwide Partner Conference, CEO Steve Ballmer predicted that Microsoft would soon steal the game crown from Sony: ‘We may still be losing money, but we have gone from nowhere to a significant player with a whole different approach. I bet we can take Sony next generation.’

"Indeed, Microsoft has made progress, signing up more than 1 million subscribers for Xbox Live, the online game service the company launched in late 2002."
