Oh, for Pete's sake.
Fei-Hung:
The reason that it's obvious you're a Sony fan is how you discuss the GAMES on each console. You reduce the Wii to "novelty games," reduce the 360 to "copycat games," and then post a long list of awesome PS3 games; only bashing Sony for strategic errors like a higher price and game delays.
You can certainly give credit to Sony for trying to innovate by buying up start-up devs with big ideas. But for me, that's like a cherry on the top of this generation. When you start with Wii's game-changing innovation and barrage of landmark games (Sports, Fit, Kart), which hasn't prevented Nintendo from making their biggest "core" projects ever (Galaxy, TP, Brawl), and then add 360's aggressive pursuit of last-gen's ideals creating an amazing "hardcore" gamer lineup from Halo and Gears to edgier things like Mass Effect and Bioshock, and all the huge multi-plats like CoD4, GTAIV and Assassin's Creed, and the three download services which have collectively been a great source of innovation, and the rise of the music games, especially the band games that have thrived on current gen console, and handheld gaming in what I think is clearly the best shape its ever been in with Nintendogs, Brain Age, NSMB, Monster Hunter, etc., and then on top of all that, you STILL get things like LBP from Sony, it just goes to show how ridiculously spoiled we are this generation, and how only a Sony fan bitter about the comparative failure of PS3 could be disappointed. That's MY take.
"[Our former customers] are unable to find software which they WANT to play."
"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."
Satoru Iwata, Nintendo President. Only slightly paraphrased.
