Playstation 3 on the path of The Sega Dreamcast?

What the hell are you talking about? The Dreamcast is a legend. Of course it isn't on the Dreamcast's path.*

Now, seriously, it won't. Even Sega (which was peanuts at the time compared to Sony) could afford one blunder (financially speaking). If anything, it'll walk the path of the Saturn - a black console fitted with an unnecessarily complicated architecture that eventually underperformed compared to its predecessors even though it delivered some unique games.

Wether Sony's next will be the company's Dreamcast-equivalent or not it is too far for anyone here to speculate about.

*footnote: one of the reasons the Dreamcast became a Legend is because it was Sega's final effort; the PS3 won't be Sony's final effort.

What!? Are you saying they failed because they were black and sophisticated? well excuse me!

 

 

 

Arrrgh! The charge of the politically correct brigade! Run for the hills!
