1. PlayStation vs. Xbox
While the Xbox and PlayStation have been butting heads for years, this was the year the battle heated up when everyone was anticipating the arrival of the newest wave of consoles after more than five years. It was like watching a legendary boxing match unfold as the two companies traded blows with each announcement made.
Sony might have knocked down Microsoft early on by addressing the latter's faults. However, they are soon catching up after reversing their policies and racking up sales close to Sony. The fight is far from over. This year was just a few rounds of the battle.
