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...
