Sony: Kinect is a bunch of tech problems

It strikes me as odd that people call him an asshole for giving tech and business arguments as to why Sony didn't go something like Kinect. I found the article very interesting and it deepened my understanding of the videogame industry. He doesn't seem te be putting Kinect down unnecessarily at all - it's just a frank discussion.

I would welcome a discussion like this from a MS or Ninty tech guy explaining why they did what they did. Ultimately, the big three have all done well, so I don't think you should get so pissed off.

Are people not allowed to say negative things anymore?

It'd be very interesting if they had a discussion(with no PR/handlers present) with him and his equivalents from MS and Nintendo, talking about why they did and didn't go with the various techs.  It would never happen though.
