Back in the day Nintendo sued Lik-Sang because they were selling products to copy/pirate GBA games.

Anyways, the Sony hatred can be explained in one sentence "They charged $600 for a gaming system" which most people think is an insane price.


To me, that is a poor reason to hate a company. If you think their product is too expensive, then just don't buy it.

I don't hate them for that ...

But I remember watching everyone before E3 saying "The XBox 360 sucks! Who would charge $400 for a crappy gaming system" to everyone saying after E3 "$600! I hate Sony!"

I think there is more to it than just the price (Sony's attitude that people would get a second job to buy a PS3 even if it didn't have any games) but the price is what triggered the shift ...
