PS3 Was Initially Underwhelming, But The Future Is Bright
In a stunning moment of brutal honesty during the Sony PlayStation Day in London, Sony Computer Entertainment president and CEO Kaz Hirai reflected on the first year for the PlayStation 3, and his remarks are surprisingly candid:
"I think it's fair to say that the first year of PlayStation 3 was somewhat a difficult one. There were some teething problems, success from our competitors, and our customers were a little underwhelmed by the range of titles that were available.
With a cavalcade of stunning upcoming releases, to include Metal Gear Solid 4, Resistance 2 and Little Big Planet, and a strong first quarter, Sony may well be able to jettison the PlayStation 3 from the initial mire it was stuck in.
The first step toward progress lies in accepting that you have problems, right?

Other stuff like this: honesty, kaz hirai, playstation 3, underwhelming
Considering the wealth of information that came from Playstation day such as Europe getting MGS bundle, Little Big Planet delayed until October, PS3 outsells 360 in Europe, GT Racing Academy, Play TV, new info/screen shots for Killzone/SOCOM/Resistance 2/Secret Agent Clank/Motorstorm 2 and this is what gets covered? Shocking lol.
I'm so happy the Wii and Xbox360 are kicking Sony's behind. The only thing Sony says: "Think of the future. Don't worry about now think of Bluray and Cell Processor and the future".
