- No Blu-ray (lowers costs, wouldn't have been delayed until 2006, easier development for games)
- Launched same time as 360 (360 wouldn't have had a 1 year head-start)
- $300 for the entry level PS3, $400 for the bigger hard drive (Lower price = higher demand...duh)
- Better advertising (PS3 had retarded advertising pre-Kevin Butler)
- Better games at launch (Needed more than just Resistance for people to buy it)
- PS2 B/C for good (Good feature to have)
