IGN: Who can save the PS3?

[Bodhesatva]

Oh goodness, what a laughably ignorant article. These are the rantings of a fanboy who clearly doesn't come to VGChartz or do basic research like reading Sony's FRs.

Virtually all of this guys suggestions involve spending a lot more money, and usually to attract more hardcore gamers. Price cut, right now? It's as if he thinks Sony is refusing to cut prices because they're stubborn or something. Uh, they've already lost 3.3 billion dollars on the PS3 guy, I'm pretty sure slashing prices further isn't in the plans until they can make some money on the machine. And paying oodles of money to Capcom or Square or Konami for "hardcore gaming blockbuster #3121" is an awful idea. How many hardcore-oriented blockbuster games need to hit before this is obvious?

Sony has spent so, so much money this generation trying to please the hardcore. Just think about how much money has been spent already! 3.3 billion doesn't even cover it: their losses would be greater if it weren't for the PS2 and PSP. We're likely talking 4 billion+ dollars lost trying to attract the hardcore. How many 40 Million+ blockbusters have been rolled in to production, how they manufactured an 800 dollar gaming device and sold it for 600! And it hasn't worked. So this guy's response is: do even more of that? Bleed even more money on the hardware, spend even more on games?
