There's nothing to be taken personally (unless you dumped 600$ on a ps3, ouch) but Peter Moore ain't that far from the truth. That's the way Sony marketing operates on a global level: overpromising and buzzwords.

You know for a fact that it's common for most companies to use hype to push products.  If smart enough, just see past it since it's so commonplace.  And your statement "unless you dumped 600$ on a ps3, ouch" is very telling of your biasness and singleling out against SONY.

True, but they don't hype empty buzzwords. You ask a sony rep what exmor is and he'll tell you it's the most amazing thing on the planet. You ask a jvc rep what prohd is and he'll tell you it's HDV capturing progressive. Slight difference there.

In regards to consoles: Atari VCS (Video Computer System) / Atari 2600 = same thing.  Famicom (Family Computer) / NES (Nintendo Entertainment System) = same thing.  Who cares.  Sega Saturn (Is this console the second largest planet in out solar system???)  Dreamcast (Is this console casting dreams or is it running games in reality???)  Who cares.

120Hz refresh rate in newer HDTV.  Sometimes it's called "True Flow" or "Motion Flow."  Who cares.

Sharp uses uses "Aquos" in their LCD TV's.  So what?  All LCD TV's are "liquid."

Wega, Vista, Regza, Bravia, Bluetooth, Rainer, etc.  You're finding such small reasons for big "justifications."

This makes no sense to me.  You are comparing branding that makes things sound cool/appealing to marketing that claims that that branding denotes the Second Coming of Christ and not slightly improved fillrate or whatever. 

Family Computer - "Computer" used to be a more vague word, and the Japanese mangle English all the time and don't even care.  I saw instant noodles over there branded "U.F.O."  I looked closer and it said, "Unidentified Flying Object".  Yes, they knew what UFO stood for -- they just didn't care.  It doesn't matter. 

Saturn - Now you're just being silly.  You think the Honda Prelude is misleading to customers if there isn't a sequel?  Shut up. 

"True Flow" - Think of it this way:  If I ask what "Full-HD" means, and one guy explains what 1080p means and why it's a better picture, and another guy tells me how it'll "bring the movie theater into your house", which one gave me a real answer? 

Aquos and all the rest - See Saturn. 



OMG THIS IS JUST AS BAD AS SAYING THE PS2 LAUNCH GAMES WILL LOOK LIKE TOY STORY 2
