Remember Yusuf Mehdi from Microsoft’s E3 keynote? Well he’s the man responsible for the Xbox One at Microsoft and he firmly believes that with the help of Kinect, Skype and their other services they will win the upcoming generation of gaming in the long run.

Translated from Spanish site El Pais:

Which at E3 is not won or lost, but it will only play. We unveiled 20 titles for Xbox One, of which 17 are exclusive to this console. I do not think Sony can say the same. What I hear is that output, we are better positioned, with a complete value proposition. With the installed Skype voice service and Kinect motion sensor included. No use to me win a show, because the test will be the consumer. In the long run our console wins.

Microsoft has been hard at work trying to control the consumer backlash they’ve been facing after announcing strict DRM. a debatable used games policy and daily online checks for the Xbox One. They’ve also failed to match Sony’s performance at E3 whom they threatened to kill at the conference but who knows? Maybe the guys at Redmond can turn things around like they did with the Xbox 360 and it’s whole red ring fiasco.

Who do you think will end up on top this coming generation? Let us know in the comments below.
