There’s nothing quite like a healthy rivalry to inspire progress and force people at the top of their game to reach new heights.
Muhammad Ali was driven to raise his game to beat George Foreman, John McEnroe and Bjorn Borg battled for the best part of a decade for tennis supremacy and Leo Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have been tussling for the right be recognised as the best footballer on the planet for years.
In technology, the constant one-upmanship between the likes of Apple and Samsung and the never-ending desire to dominate lucrative sectors is proof that constant competition drives innovation and improvement.
In console gaming, the ongoing war between Microsoft’s Xbox and Sony’s PlayStation has been raging for more than 15 years. Battles have been won and lost, with both sides edging ahead before falling behind, with new features and more powerful hardware in constant development to get the edge over the opposition.
The latest battleground is 4K gaming. With new televisions capable of displaying visuals at higher resolutions than ever before, the big two console heavyweights have been working hard on upgraded versions of their flagship machines to take advantage of the new ultra-HD displays.
