So a company shouldn't bother trying to drum-up support for its product or start advertising it until it's already out?

You obviously don't work in marketing, and thank God for that.

The graphic designer that came up with black and grey text on a black and grey background on Sony's page really needs to be shot. You need to scroll the page to just the right few pixels where the gradient of the greys contrasts enough just to be able to read it - as with most of their decisions lately, very lame.

The Wii page just smacks of "fuck all effort".

The 360 page really is commendable. MS is the only one doing all it can to entice potential customers.

#1, did you try Mass Drestruction fot Saturn/PlayStation? That was a great stab at the Return Fire formula.

"Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories will release exclusively for the PSP in October."

Until of course it's ported to the PS2 a few months later, which is then ported back to the PSP, which is then ported back to the PS2 etc. etc.

Predictions like this always make me laugh.

Here's another: "By the year 2000 we'll all be wearing silver space-age clothes and be driving around in flying cars."

Various idiots - 1950-1970.

He probably doesn't think it takes balls to post it because he doesn't see anything wrong with it - as nutjobs usually don't.

I can't wait for this guy to try and get a girlfriend. Or boyfriend as is probably more likely.

> I have trouble believing that the ability to connect to the PS3 was a top one. Who even plans on getting a PS3?

That's what I thought. These results are surely skewed to try and justify Sony's insistance on doing it anyway. PSone games on the move is a much more attractive prospect - backed up by the results of this here poll.

I don't know what's worse - that some prick can smash up a piece of kit like that, or that people like braulio think it's funny...

Can't we just export all of these people to Antartica?

Americans prefer stock-car racing as the oval tracks mean there is only one way to turn the steering wheel, and thinking about that doesn't hurt their brains.

> Why would video games be to blame? The term blame implies that this is a negative.

If you work in the tourism industry within these national parks, then yea, video games are having a negative effect.

The only positive effect of less people spending time/money in areas where all they have to offer is walking, cycling, bird watching and white water rafting, is that there animals get more peace and quiet.
