Ok its true, the sixaxis blows.

But Blu-Ray makes sense to me. With every console upgrade their needs to be a media upgrade. More complex programming and graphics calls for more space. If not the upgrade from a PS2 isnt worth it. I mean what people are complaining about is the fact that the PS3 plays movies? So? If the PS3 had used DVD, then one year into development it would be experiencing problems with space.

God of War 2 came out, what, less than a year ago? (Maybe, lol) You need more space to develop, and the PS3 has that. It just happens to double as a bluray player.
As far as games go, please come on. Two hyped up games have released, on flopped, the other one was short but extremely sweet. This all comes to an end as early as next week. Why release your AAA games with such a low install base? Ghost Recon 2 was fun as hell on the PS3, but since there was never anyone one, finding games took up half of the playing time.

The rest of the flops were bad ports. You cant blame that on Sony, or expect it to continue very much longer. EA cant keep blaming the PS3 when games like Ratchet and Clank are possible. Its not the PS3, its them. That will change.

And so what, they moved around SKUs. Whats funny about this is, how many 60/20 gb do you think are actually out there? LOL. I mean they have only sold 5 million! 40gb and 80gb. They had to do something at pricing, but you cnat come out and say "Shit, we messed up. Sorry let us take back our PS3's, were changing it up a bit."

They gradually fixed price and SKU's this year. Its PR. I bet they planned to do this from as early as January. How pissed would people be if they discontinued their SKU and drop the price $200 all at once? (Sorry Europe, LOL) But seriously, Sony was doing horribly out the gate, but I think they are in a good position now. Once these games come out in the next 6 months we may all feel a bit different.
