I think a lot of this goes back to the proliferation of the Internet, where a very vocal minority can make a lot of noise and potentially alter perceptions of the masses, whether they are accurate or not.

It's in hard print.  It must be true.

Wait a minute!  You're one of them!  You and your Japanese-language Sony-whatever the phrase was!  I can tell this is your fault!

Edit:  I'd get one, but then I'd have to buy an HDTV, and then I'd have to pay that electricity.  Then I'd have to get a house to put them in.  And probably a stand for the TV, too.  Then, I'd have to rent a hooker to relieve the stress of putting together a stand using instructions from broken English.
I may also need a few hookers to play the games with.  The bottom line is that it's just too expensive. [/penny-arcade]

I had my $599 all ready to go, then XBoxMan7000 said it was silly.

Gamepro: Now that the launch dust has settled, it appears the PS3's reception is improving. What do you attribute that to?


It... it is?

Gamepro: In a world quick to criticize incumbents, what's the best thing the PlayStation brand brings to the gaming table?

PR: Innovation.


Ah ha ha ha ha ha....

I think you would be hard pressed to find a product launch in the past several years that matched the buzz generated by PS3. The amount of coverage that came out of the launch was staggering. It even surpassed when [Sega, who Dave formerly worked for] launched the Dreamcast, if you can believe it!


And that worked out so well for Sega too in the long run

"The PlayStation 3 has come under fire recently for its steep price."

Hello last year's E3
