SCEA exec: PS3 is going to 'stand the test of time'

Sony really have made a total cockup of this gen so far. Let's have a look at their rap sheet

1. Overpricing the PS3
Yeah, you gotta try and keep your losses low but money has to start flowing IN from somewhere, why create such a huge barrier. Wasn't it Kaz who said "we must take risks to reap the rewards"? Well sony, drop the price! The 360/Wii are looking FAR FAR better right now considering what they can do (especially the 360 which is a force to be reckoned with gameswise comparing to the PS3 right now).

2. Giving Europe the screw you
Sony started off on a really bad note with Europe, first of all killing Lik-Sang for imports of PSPs and PS3s (not to mention SACKING THEIR EUROPEAN STAFF for doing it). Then we had giving Europe only Software BC and only the expensive SKU, then dumping all the old sixaxis controllers in game and controller bundles while the rest of the world were taking their DS3s out for a jolly good rumble in the hay. It certainly didn't go down well here, where the PS2 left a hardcore faithful.

3. Backward Compatibility: lol wut?
This speaks for itself, they took PS2 BC out. Even Software BC doesn't exist in new PS3s now, now you need another godamn box to run PS2 games, another TV connector with older cables. Honestly Sony, tons and I do mean TONS of blogs and comment tickers like this one constantly bitch you out for not putting it back in.. What's stopping you, stupidity?

4. Not removing the region locks for it's older games
Speaks for itself, but this is why I wish DoDonPachi DaiOuJou Black Label EXTRA were being offically released in Europe for 360......because I can't get it on PS2.
