4. Sometimes they dont know what they are doing.

Thats just my opinion what's yours?

Answer 1

They didn't s***w up. It was all perfectly planned. You see, in order to win the format war (blu-ray vs hd-dvd) Sony brilliantly manufactured a blu-ray disc player into the ps3. Yes, it might be a loss on each system sold, however, the point was to sell as many blu ray players as possible in order to knock Toshiba out.

Anyway, as you said, it is your opinion, and it is MY opinion that you are wrong and do not know what you're saying.

Answer 2

i agree with the asker, the ps3 is a joke, who cares about blu-ray? quality games is where u wannabe, they waited almost a yr after the 360 n they still have no block buster exclusive hits. i dont buy game systems based on what kind of "disc reader" they have. gears of war? yeah top that ps3.

Answer 3

1. They were sued about the rumble in the pads. MS were also sued about the same thing but settled quicker. Ninty's been sued over some stuff too. Point being, they all get sued countless times about all manner of stuff - some is just reported louder than others.

2. Your choice of games is obviously a heck of a lot different to mine, and considering the amount of cross-platform titles you obviously don't like the 360 either.

3. Reports are wrong. Wii aside, EVERY single console has launched with a loss in its first few years. The costs to develop the new technology get more with each new generation, which means a bigger hit to start with. As a comparison, MS never made a profit on the original Xbox and are something in the region of $6 Billion down on the 360 (if my figures are wrong, i apologise, but the point is still valid).

4. And neither do any of the others. You could have quite easily made the same points about the 360 or pretty much any other console in the last 20 years.
