5. Not really. PS3 seems to have more third party exclusives in the works than the 360 does.

4. They seem to add features to PSN more frequently than Microsoft does to Live. At this point, I'd say it's fast approaching parity with Live and only really lacks cross-game voice chat.

3. Would be nice, sure. Not a huge mistake, though, IMO.

2. Yes!

1. I see the point, but Sony's mistake was making such an expensive console to begin with and what's done is done. They're managing pretty respectable sales at such a high price point, and I think it's better if they hold off and continue to focus on profitability and lowering hardware costs rather than cutting price just because people are telling them that they should.

 

Good list OP - although I'd agree with the points above that it's 1) and 2) that are the real issues currently, and that 1) is due to the inherent nature of the console.  With the cost of the tech inside it the PS3 had to be that price.

5) I think is not a big issue anymore, 4) I'd agree with to an extent but I think its more a marketing issue now - i.e. the marketplace view of where PSN/XMB started vs where it is now and 3) I think isn't really holding it back - i.e the majority of potential general purchasers aren't worry about PS1 games being on the platform.

 



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
