Jeff Minter on Sony's Arrogance

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the anger-from-the-edge dept.

Regular Edge columnist Jeff Minter has lashed out at Sony over what he perceives as incredible arrogance on the console-maker's part. From the BBC article: "Mr Minter, writing in his regular column for Edge, said: 'They seem absolutely certain that even when they say it's going to be considerably more expensive than existing consoles... nevertheless us eager customers will rush out in droves to buy it because it's, hey, a new PlayStation.'"

    My "video game habit" is still an order of magnitude cheaper than the booze and cigarette habit that infects 99% of the population.

    Gosh, I like all three of those things- at once. I suppose I'm fucked.

  3. Smug? by Megane · · Score: 2, Funny

    UK video gaming stalwart Jeff Minter has criticised Sony for being "smug" about its PlayStation 3 console. Smug? Right now, Sony have more smug than a batallion of Priuses, driven by OS X users, all playing iPods and using Netwons!

    Go, Yak, go!
