The Battle of Midway is the turning point of World War 2, where America,still outnumbered, outskilled and outclassed, managed to wreck 4 Japanese carriers, effectively giving US the initiative in the war. The Playstation had been gaining alot of ground the past few years- it finally overcame many of the problems the PS3 had at launch- lack of titles, price and its crappy online play  just to name a few. With this momentum, they are trying to win over the vital "core gamer" market (the casual gaming market had already been dominated by Nintendo and Apple). The Xbox, on the other hand, just introduced Wifi- the last console to do so. Their sights is aimed straight at Nintendo- to get a share of that very profitable casual gaming. That can be seen in their crappy E3 presentation, where they spend the second half on casual games- which is not a very good idea when the audience are core gamers, people who think casual gaming is corrupting gaming as a whole.
