Sony And The No-Confidence Vote

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the spending-your-goodwill-currency dept.

Sony continues to spend the goodwill it has achieved over the last generation of consoles. As widely reported over the weekend, last Friday CEO for SCE Europe David Reeves spoke to the press. "We have built up a certain brand equity over time since the launch of PlayStation in 1995 and PS2 in 2000 that the first five million are going to buy it, whatever it is, even it didn't have games." This 'you'll buy it anyway' attitude has further annoyed gamers already rankling from the announced pricetag. Next Gen and IGN talk about the two sides of the coin, with IGN laying into the company for the lack of HDMI output in the cheaper model, and Next Generation saying that Sony is far from defeated.

    I hope your English teacher was drop-dead gorgeous and has Angelina Jolie's lips, because she owes you one hell of a blowjob to make up for the horrendous job she did of teaching you basic grammar!

    Seriously, if she's not putting out for you then let us know where she is and I'll go smack her for you. Then I'll buy you a book on English for non-natives. Maybe we can still salvage some basic communication skills out of you.
