Kaz Hirai would take a bullet to the head over an xbox 360 exclusive

two scenrios:

1. Kaz says he wants GeOW and Halo on the PS3

Xboxfanboy:"LOL, ofcourse he does, the 360 has the best games and PS3 has nothing! isn't it nice to dream? Sony execs are losers."

 

2. Kaz says he doesn't want any xbox exclusives

Xboxfanboy: "ROFL, what a liar! the 360 has the best games and the PS3 has nothing, he's probably still not over the FF13 announcement (which is why the PS3 sold 20k this week)."

 

Is there anything that an exec is going to say that isn't going to get him bashed by fanboys?

It's a given that anti-Sony fanboys will bash any sort of response that Kaz would make; it's far more important to consider how non-fanboys will take his comments.

Personally, I would have liked for Kaz to have said something like "We welcome any and all good games to our already stellar lineup" or "I respect Microsoft as a competitor, but Sony's software library is in a class of its own."  Or words to that effect.

(Then again, it'd be entertaining to see Kaz shout "Falcon Punch!" and then clobber the guy).

My point is this.

If he says he'd like (insert xbox exclusive), he would look like he's weak and not confident in his own product.

If he says he doesn't think the PS3 needs any of the 360's exclusives, he would look like an arrogant prick.

It's a lose-lose situation. I don't expect any execs to give their competitors any credit, nor do i except them to not pump up the credibility of their own product. What were some of you bashers(not implying you, Alasted) expecting? "I WANT HALO....NOW!" give me a break.
