"It shouldn't even be considered a game if its rated anything beneath "M"." I'm going to give a quote from the wonderful Brian Hastings: "One of Sony’s biggest advantages is that it has strong franchises in every genre. Whereas Microsoft’s successful titles are mostly M-rated, and Nintendo’s are mostly E-rated, Sony has a big list of hit titles across the spectrum. When a 30-something gamer (like me) goes to buy a game console, it’s a lot easier to justify the purchase when there are games he can play with his kids as well as more mature stuff. To Microsoft’s credit, they are doing a good job of catching up. The acquisition of Rare and the development of Viva Pinata have helped to broaden their spectrum. But it takes time to build a franchise, and Sony has been building their suite of titles for over a decade. Consider the breadth, success and critical acclaim of some of their exclusive properties: The Getaway, God of War, Gran Turismo, Hot Shots Golf, Jak and Daxter, Killzone, Ratchet & Clank, Shadow of the Colossus, Singstar, Sly Cooper, SOCOM, and Twisted Metal. These are all million-plus sellers worldwide that are either already announced or likely to appear on PS3. Add to this Sony’s new line up of first-party titles, including Heavenly Sword, Lair, Motorstorm, Resistance: Fall of Man, Uncharted and White Knight Story, and they have an even deeper and stronger line-up than what they had on PS2." Another one: "OK, this one’s going to be controversial, but I have to say it. I like [Company X] a lot. I think [Company X] has innovated far more than any other company in the industry. And I think the [Console X] is really, really fun. But… let me relate to you a story that may sound familiar: Your friend Reggie invites you over for a [Console X] Party. It’s awesome. You and your friends partake in whatever beverages are legally appropriate for your age group. The next day everyone who went to the party rushes out and buys a [Console X] . A week later Reggie hosts another [Console X] Party. This time only half the group comes. It’s still fun, but there isn’t quite as much shoving to get at the [Console X]mote. The next week Reggie hosts another [Console X] Party. You tell him you have bird flu."
