That the Dreamcast did not fail because of when it was released but rather because of bad marketing, bad third-party support, etc., and that the PS2 was released a year before the X-Box and GC which was a huge advantage for Sony. So saying that it would be stupid for the Xbox 2 to come out a year earlier than the PS3 because the DC tried something similar and failed is completely ignoring these facts. It would not be the same situation as the Dreamcast. Probably not the same situation as the PS2, either, but more close to that than the DC.
