Shambolic on 26 September 2007
The way I see it, the way to future proof a console is through games that people will still play years after their release. For example, I still sometimes play on my old PS1, usually on a FF game.
Even though its successor is out, the PS2 is still outperforming it. That's because their are still tens of millions of people happy to play on all the great games it has. They don't care about the DVD player or Emotion Engine, people just don't care about hardware, they want to play good games. For some reason Sony seem to be ignoring this fact and ploughing ahead with the 'future proofed' sales pitch rather than concentrating on games that people want to play.
