    Sometimes I figures why everyone would prefer to belittle company's like Sony despite it's product being launched fine elsewhere.. There are a few points raised here that I would like my bite on it..

    1. 100,000 units, yea its low but why are we pissed? Its not even in the Europe yet.. Think about it, Xbox360 didnt launch that well anyways.. and give it time, eventually shops will have enough stock of PS3..
    2. XBM versus Sony online, goodness, the Sony's version has just been launched.. Sure it'll be infrastructurally inferior to XMB.. But that does not mean its fundamentally inferior. My hunch is that both will turn out similarly well..
    3. Yes, its all about the games, but I seem to feel most of the ppl here think they have rubbish games. I mean, Resistance: Fall of Man has been reviewed, and its been raved to be an excellent game, both single and multiplayer. Does that not quality it to be 'less' belittled? Xbox didnt have AAA titles when it launched anyways..
    4. And who actually SAID THAT MORE POWERFUL = MORE FUN? NO one.. Why is everyone being all sarcastic about it? The guy just said its more powerful and the usual suspect I see all the time goes like.. ZOMG!! LIST ON EBAY! No pun intended..

    I'm just saying, can't people be standing on a little more neutral ground? No one has used it, touched it and seen it yet (for real) here. I believe the term, You are deemed innocent until you have been proven guilty, applies here. Why belittle Sony (okay, maybe its okay for Sony), but why belittle the PS3?

    I'm not Sony fan here.. But I just feel its been pretty anti-sony all round too much here...
    That was a joke mate. I agree with you. I was pointing out that its the games that matter

    I have said several times that i'l probably end up with all 3. It was just sarcasm. I would have thought that the huge letters, wink smiley and general sardonic tone would have given that one away.

    Fair enough really.. .. just that I find all these Sony hostility a little too strong.. PS3 is a good product, Sony maybe a rubbishrubbishrubbishrubbish.. but I was just suggesting that it may be advantageous to split these two individually..

    I see what you mean. I cant help but think that a lot of the slating Sony are getting is from people who are a bit miffed off that they wont be able to afford one near the lauch. I'l probably end up buying one around this time next year when its cheaper and MGS is out .

    How will i find time to play on all these next gen consoles . Great time to be a gamer
