summary? summary anyone? :P

i got about half way through the first post, but i'm too tired to keep reading :P .. what i did read was a good read though :)

The best bits are around the middle IMO.

Its primarily a discussion of the direction of all three consoles, why we think the Wii will dominate, and why the PS3 is a poor direction for Sony. Also a general discussion about Sony - and how the "vertical" nature of their business actually puts them at a strong disadvantage.

PS - if all goes to plan, I'll be able to reveal the content of the "cut" lines soon enough - and why I asked for them to be cut.

I hope these parts aren't about a WiiHD or Nintendo's "one generation behind" strategy for the next gen as well (i.e. receive ports of 360/PS3 games for their Wii successor).

You have dropped this nonsense by now, right?

I was never a believer of WiiHD.

And as for receiving ports - its almost guaranteed if you think about it. But that is still a LONG way off, and irrelevant to discuss at this stage.

...

But no - the cut lines have nothing to do with this, and nothing to do with the rest of the conversation in general. I let John in on a little secret, which made him happy (and has already made me happy). If all goes to plan, everyone here will find out in a few weeks :)

(just something sort of confidential that can't be talked about just yet...)
