SPOnG: Maybe one of the problems for Sony is that Wii has been such a phenomenon in terms of sales that there is perhaps a tendency for people to compare PS3 sales unfavourably with Wii.

Jamie Macdonald: Could I just point something out - that PlayStation 2 is still outselling Wii in all the major markets. End of story.

 

End of story you say mate? Umm no? I mean, how much more out of touch can they be? Some of the things they say from time to time really makes me thing both MS ans Sony are completely oblivious to what the Wii is doing. Its like they havent even noticed. The above statement is wrong in EVERY region except like New Zealand. And thats not a major market at ALL.

How far from the pack will the Wii distance itself saleswise before MS and Sony realize what in the hell is happening?

On another note this is a good read. Check out the interview, it has some good info and news about LBP and EOJ as well as the PSeye in general and their plans for it. And it also has a few more gems:

 

SPOnG: Going back to online, one of the impressive things on Xbox Live has been achievement points. It is still, currently, one of the reasons why certain gamers will buy a 360 title over a PS3 title. What plans do you have with Home to offer a similar experience?

Jamie Macdonald: Well, as far as we are concerned we don’t copy or emulate any of our competitor’s things, but within PlayStation Home there will be the feature called the Hall of Fame

Nothing wrong with a little copying especially when its something cool, but show respect where its due.
