I think Sony shot themselves in the foot… there is a high probability [they] will fail. The price point is probably unsustainable. For years and years Sony has been a very difficult company to deal with from a developer standpoint. They could get away with their arrogance and capriciousness because they had an installed base. They have also historically had horrible software tools. You compare that to the Xbox360 with really great authoring tools and additional revenue streams from Xbox Live... a first party developer would be an idiot to develop for Sony first and not the 360. People don’t buy hardware, they buy software. |

» Xbox360 and Wii is better
Everyone disses the PS3 because it sucks. I have a 360 and I'm gonna have a wii. The PS3 is too expensive, has no good games coming out anytime soon. Gran Turismo and MGS games are not what I'd call good. I bought a PSP and sold it 2 months later. It was a waste of money due to no good games and sony trying to restrict homebrew games. My DS on the other hand has great games.
I really hope Sony Fails with the PS3. It would help Nintendo regain the #1 spot, which they deserve.
**** sony fanboys

» No games what?
Ok let me give you a genre by genre breakdown of games PS3 will have that will be amazing...
Action Adventure - Devil May Cry 4, Metal Gear Solid 4 (what part of MGS is bad the great story telling or the great gameplay? Either way its loved by many and doesn't need your approval.), Ninja gaiden Sigma, Genji, Heavenly Sword
Platform- Only need to say this one game Ratchet and Clank sequel
Racing- Motor Storm, Gran Turismo (you may not call it good but tons of other people do), Formula 1
Fighting- Tekken 6 and Virtua Fighter 5
RPGs- White Knight Story, Final Fantasy XIII, Untold Legends
FPS- Resistance: Fall of Man
Many of those games will be out soon so your a liar (lets switch that I and A and we got another PS3 title showing promise Lair).
It's a shame Sony won't fail and Nintendo will stay in its normal spot. Have a nice day.
(insert profanity about other console)

My XBOX has never frozen or overheated. It's well known that was only a problem with launch units. PS3 will have problems too with it's experimental technology. I guarantee it.

» Definately Personal
This guy definately shows a lot of spite towards Sony this sounds less like a nice little opinion of his but rather bad blood between him and Sony.
Either Sony turned down something of his or whatever, but to dismiss PSX and PS2 completely, when even your big time xbox guys know it deserves some credit, shows that this man has something very personal in the matter.
I think all Sony fanboys should write this man a letter not to flame but just to notify him when PS3 hits 1million units sold easily. Just so he gets thousands of letters notfiying him that the company he hates is still going strong.

What did he do for gaming besides py into affect cpoyright laws and force some old engineer into retirement? all of his ideas he stole and he is not a gamer with fresh ideas. He is however a capitolist who would steal Sony's ideas and then comment on how great it is.

» sony sells more
this guy is a moron. spector, you are right on this one. im sure sony dismissed one of his games or ideas because just like chuckie cheese he thought it was a good idea. chuckie cheese is for dirtbags, and hicks.
anyway, yeah sony sucks and the 360 is way better. is that why they sold more PS2's, (that have been out for what, 5 years?) than they did the 1 year old xbox360 this year.
sony is a huge company and people are loyal to their system. i know personally i was never a big fan of nintendo as a kid, the sega and genesis were aweseome and to me sony has went in that direction with there machines, idk nintendo just seems like a childs toy and the PS lineup seems like a full on experience.

» well..
Are you telling me that PS3 price isn't too high?
Are you telling me the online is really free or even going to be any good? we have to pay other developers(EA)?
I think the main point is that.. WI and 360 will outsell the PS3 until next year when those questions above are answered.

» Yes online is free
Check back to the PS2 they had games from EA and other companies online for free. Even Socom a great FPS on the PS2 had free online with no strings attached. The only pay to play were Final Fantasy XI and Everquest as far as I know (and MMORPGs don't count).
So it is possible to do free online they've already done it. Nothing stopping them from doing it again.
And the price is a personal matter for each person. I for one have saved up and can afford one and will get one, and I think I'll get everything I payed for and more in fun and happiness.

screw sony, you know all these corporations are greedy but sony is the worst. With their storage formats they release all of which failed. Remember they created memory sticks which only they use,blu ray,you can throw um in their kind of,md players and probably other formats that failed. man they even got Liksang.com out of Business due to Multiple Sony Lawsuits. I use to be a sony fan boy too then i seen what Nintendo DS and XboX.LIVE has to offer.. PS3 what PS3?

Sony is the most greedy evil corporation eh? Well should I introduce this company called Microsoft to you? They have a pretty poor and controlling track record themselves (far worse than Sony if you ask around a bit).
Sony trys to be inovative with new storage formats and devices and you shoot them down. Unless people try these kind of things we will never move on so your really anti-progressive in your thinking.
PS3 what PS3... oh the one with the great titles... yea that one... I'll take that one.

» Yes I Do
Beta Max was actual a great idea if you look at it closely. Higher qualities movies just on a shorter tape. VHS won out though because of its larger storage and people wantted to record TV shows and such. Not many companies went with Sony and Beta and it died off.
You can't directly compare Blu-ray to Beta though because now Sony is a much larger corporation and has movie companies in their pocket. This garuntees movies on Blu-ray for a good long while, and the PS3 gaming aspect of it will keep it alive even longer. So this is going to be a totally different game than it was with Beta.
Like I said before if nobody is out trying to be innovative we will never make a leap forward. Atleast Sony is trying and thinking. You're thinking is just anti-progressive.

Whos a loser? Getting pissed off because I insulted your favorite console? Just because I want the PS3 to fail?
Also, how is the wii gay? I dont see anything that could classify the console as a Homo. The games coming for it are ones that spank Sonys and Microsofts console completely.
Example: Zelda. No game comes close to the awesomeness of the zelda series and twilight princess looks like the best game yet.
Virutal console is another example. Classic games from Sega, Hudson, Nintendo and other companies from the 90's? Best Idea Ever. Microsofts live aracade and Sonys Live Ripoff wont even come close to that.
So, Mr. Anger. Grow up and realize that flaming a person over his/her opinion doesn't help anything and helps make you look like even more of a moron. Have a nice day

Well you'd do the same if this guy insultted your Wii and don't pretend for a second you wouldn't.
I'd say the Metal Gear Solid series and Final Fantasy Series do a good job of coming close to your almighty savior of Zelda (please don't take this as a huge attack on Zelda I know you all love him ever so much).
Virtual console is just a small bonus imo because I certainly don't buy a next-gen console to play old games on it. PC emulators (oh yea you guys ripped of those in the first place so don't call anything else a rip off its hypocritical) have done this for me for a long time.
And you don't have that many great games on Wii. Sony has just as many super titles coming its way (as I listed above).

you obviously don't plan to get a PS3, but to say it sucks without playing it, is stupid. You say GT and MGS are not good games, I know people who would say Zelda is a rehash of the same game 10 years ago. Nintendo is rehashing the same franchises 10 years ago. What's this virtual console crap? Wow, I can play my NES, SNES, Genesis game on the Wii. Wait, can't I play that on my PSP for free or my orginal consoles?

I have heard much the same that sonys dev tools are sub par or hard to work with. And none of you fanboys can tell me that Sony hasnt shown its arogance many many times. And to boot, the Ps3 isnt even out; so your all relying on hype. This is how Sony has sold its gaming products. Hype. Dont get me wrong, i fell for the Psone and PS2 hype. But we were also in the age where Sony really could tell us anything they wanted, and we ate it up. Now with the majority of people having interent access and such. We are able to make are own judgements, and look beyond Sonys hype. And guess what, many many people have seen through Sonys BS, Lies (what ever you want to call them) and are not going to just slam down $600 on there false claims. Ill let the Sony sheep do that.

» almost... but no
He only mentions positives abot Wii and 360 in the article if you didn't notice either and no negatives for them. Sony on the other hand he only has negatives to speak of.
"Sony's success with PS and PS2 was nothing brilliant and that they were merely able to hit the market right on spot because of perfect timing. Bushnell even calls Sony as "almost the accidental winner."
That fact that man can discredit PSX and PS2 both of which were extremely solid system and had so many amazing titles in some many genres. The delivered on their hype the last 2 times and game sales and console sales over the years prove it (from a business stand point atleast).
Even with those sub-par dev tools still seems to me amazing games are coming out for the PS3 so I guess they are usable atleast.
Sony has done it twice before with great systems that have great games. I'm guessing it will happen again. If you want to bring up the internet part it is causing problems to with creating spin and such on subjects. If you want to discuss what "BS" Sony is putting out there post it in here cause I'd like to know honestly.
baaaahhhhhhhhhh

» Movies
People who watch movies on their consoles most of the time like to have it quiet so it doesn't have a droning that interupts the mood of the movie or a very story driven game as well.
It's all about the ambience.

» Spector needs a job. Unless this is it
Spector must be an undercover $ony operative. He doesn't listen to what people say and sees anything against his opinion as an attack. Exactly in line with sony's PR campaign. Not getting off topic, Nolan Bushnell is the main reason video games even exist, and everybody is attacking his opinion. Does anybody even know how sony entered the videogame market? They originally had a partnership with Nintendo to make a CD add on for the Super Nintendo to compete with Sega CD. Both companies realized it was too late and next gen was approaching so the project was cancelled. sony had a lot of money invested, so thought to use that research to make their own console. Their time was right and Sega botched the Saturn big time so their timing was perfect. The N64 was technically a much better system, but they made it cartridge based and that ruined their chance to get the top spot, due to the high price of cartridges. He is also right on the mark about sony screwing developers. PS2 had to be programmed from an assembly level, just because they didn't need to make it easy. They have the installed user base and people are more likely to buy a product they are familiar with. sony is doing it again with the PS3, even blatently saying people will pay the hefty price simply because it's sony. So go ahead and say Atari sucks, Chuck E Cheeze sucks, etc if that makes you feel better. This guy is a genius, and he has a good sense of business ethics.

» Spector has a job
I wish I was an undercover guy working for Sony but alas I am not. I work at a local Gamestop actually and today is my day off so I'm just playing games and reading my favorite news feed. And no I don't feel attacked or anything I just like to try and set straight any false information. If I'm saying something wrong correct me as well (that's what I enjoy here).
About this man though "Isn't this the guy who stole pong? What did he do for gaming besides put into affect cpoyright laws and force some old engineer into retirement? all of his ideas he stole and he is not a gamer with fresh ideas. He is however a capitolist who would steal Sony's ideas and then comment on how great it is." is a very relavant comment Fistfight made about this guy.
And honestly unless I'm a developer I only care about the end result the developers come out with and for PSX and PS2 it was great stuff. Yes I will pay more because it's Sony because Sony has delivered in the past and from the games they've annoucned look like they will be doing it again.
He has done stuff right in the business world for sure, but he comes across in the interview as bitter to me (can't prove that though so however you read into it).
