I think the bigger advantage for Microsoft (and why I think they do it) is it detaches the figures from actual sums of money and thus leads to more impulse purchasing as there is less feeling of actually spending money when something is priced in 'points'.

But Sony consoles are notoriously difficult to make games on due to hardware configurations . Plus, the Xbox was phenomenally well built where as Sony have been plagued with hardware issues in every generation.
