Xbox Founder Believes Xbox One Won’t Catch Up To PS4

4.5
The man that lead the development of the original Xbox, Ed Fries, weighed in on who he thinks is winning the current console war, and it’s not his old employer.

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.”
