Still A Rough Road Ahead for the PlayStation 3

Posted by Zonk on Tuesday March 13, 2007 @08:30AM from the still-working-out-the-kinks dept.

TobyToadstool writes "Despite the good news out of GDC last week, it still seems like Sony's new console has some image management to do. CNET says that the PlayStation 3 is 'the most unwanted console in recent memory' and asks 'why is the PS3 so undesirable?' They specifically question the company's wisdom in emphasizing the power of the console. Their impression is that this invites developers to neglect gameplay, in favour of investing in graphics. Likewise, Gamespot is running a piece suggesting ten ways to make the PS3 worth buying. A lower price is just one of the suggestions with exclusives, and the need for online standardization, following close behind. Looks like Sony still has its work cut out."

The wii ends up costing as much as the PS3 if you actually want to buy one. The only places taking any orders for it at the "retail price" only sell it with a bunch of extra shit.
