Sony Still Not Happy With 'Home'
1up is reporting on comments made by Sony's Kaz Hirai to the Japanese magazine Famitsu. Hirai states that he personally is still not completely satisfied with the way Sony's ambitious Home project is shaping up. He also talks about the loss of the Monster Hunter franchise to the Wii, the lack of backwards compatibility in the newest version of the PS3, and other weighty holiday issues. "If anything, we believe the delay would have a positive effect. I personally am not satisfied with the current version of Home. This is a very big project for the PS3 and we want to make sure that we deliver to our hearts content. We hope everyone will look forward to its spring release next year."
Dude, you're so right. I have bashed the PS3 so badly and now that they see the error of their ways, I'm also feeling sorry for them.
They really are getting their asses handed to them by Nintendo and Microsoft. I hope the suits at Sony have the guts to stick it out until the PS3 reaches a reasonable consumer price-point ($200-$250), because I think that everyone is going to need a blu-ray player and 1080p gaming a year or two from now.
> They really are getting their asses handed to them by Nintendo and Microsoft
LOL! What an idiot!
The PS3 is neck and neck with the Wii in European sales - and that is before this new price cut! The 360 is dead in all of Europe outside of the UK.
The 360 is completely dead in Japan.
The PS3 and Wii are getting close to the same monthly sales in Japan.
Oh wait, you're just some moronic US fanboy running his mouth off about US 360 sales during Microsoft's release of their only 'big game' Halo 3...
LOL! Ang31us you are a pathetic fanboy. Get a life, get a clue.
awww.... cut the poor delusional boy some slack. By posting as AC he gets to use the "my other persona is an even bigger asshole" karma bonus point.
Microsoft sold millions of consoles, but Halo 3 pretty much marks the beginning of the end for the 360. Sorry folks, it's as good as it gets and looks to be all downhill from here.
Nintendo has this wacky controller that people aren't really sure what to do with. Yeah, it's great for some sword fighting games or maybe some Wii sports... but what happens when u just wanna sit back, relax, and play something casually? Well, you can't because you have to wave your arms around like a mad man! What if I was sick in bed and just wanted to play my Wii... that's pretty much not gonna happen. So, Mario Galaxy is gonna come out here in a few days. To me, the game seems too easy, and it's not really going to be a system seller since their systems pretty much sell themselves and are pretty hard to find. I'm very unhappy with my Wii; physically, graphically, and the release list from now until Q2 of next year looks like complete crap. I'm selling it.
The PS3 has a much brighter future than both consoles. The release list from now until Q2 2008 looks freakin' sweet and this Home thing looks really interesting to me. Superior graphics, BLU-RAY, backwards compatability (certain models), and much much more make this system so much better. Yeah, the system costs $399-$499, but you can't get a good blu-ray player for under $400 so that really makes the gaming components FREE (or under $100 depending on model but u get what I'm saying).
Honestly, the PS3 is a bargain.
360 is dead and the Wii is not far behind.
Because zonk only posts the negative crap when it comes to the PS3. Whereas the far more newsworthy release of V2.00 system software *today*, and what it offers, unsurprisingly, gets totally ignored by him. Too busy chucking his load over some wank '360 blog I guess.
