Sony Execs open there mouth again.

Post by SamUK »

Someone should really give them a pre approved script or something so they dont look as stupid. :clap:

It's difficult to talk about Nintendo because we don't look at their console as being competitors. They're a different world and we operate in our world — that's kind of the way I look at things...

And with the Xbox — again, I can't come up with one word to fit. You need a word that describes something that lacks longevity... Last time I checked, they've never had a console that's been on the market for more than four or five years and we've committed to a ten year life cycle, so you do the math...

And unless things go really bad, there's no way that at the end of a life cycle our competition is going to have a higher install base.



he had to check how many consoles MS have had that lasted past the 5 year mark.

they have only had one console. #-o must of taken alot of research.

and "unless things go really bad".

hows the worst xmas in the companies history for bad?

i think they worded it as 10 years support.

so theyll keep making games and updating live but something else can come out in the mean time.


thats always been the plan though, not just recently.

Have to say, respect to Sony for still making the PS2 and games for it.
MS just stopped the Xbox as soon as the 360 came alone.

I think perhaps thats what they're saying. Not that there wont be a PS4 for 10 years (from when the PS3 was launched) but that the PS3 will have a 10 year lifespan.

Which, correct me if I'm wrong is nearly where the PS2 is? When was it launched?

i obviously meant one previous console. if he had to research if they have a console available now then hes even dumber than i thought.

Matty, sony have to keep making games for the PS2 because by the sounds of it its there only profitable venture at the moment.

Indeed, it's horrible when people try and use correct spelling on the interwebs. Makes my blood boil, it does.

It's a real shame you have no capacity to learn and can't seem to comprehend grammar that an 11 year old ought to have grasped.

GLOL!

I have no need to be popular, my ego isn't that fragile honey. Besides I have more than enough friends, I don't need anymore. :+:
