Nope, just most people have an opinion they'll share.
Saying what you believe they could have done with hindsight is easy but there was a lot of things that have gone against Sony this gen that their riskier loss leading model couldn't weather. Business is a risk, Sony took a gamble and lost out on nearly every throw of the dice, hence the huge losses. We can all review the aftermath and say what we thought we'd do differently though, that's not to say we'd have thought the same in 2005 as you just couldn't envision all thats happened.
Lets face it, the 360 is practically a different console now than it was at launch, everything from the dashboard, feature list to the hardware itself has changed. How could Sony plan a strategy to keep up with that development.

In defence of the ps3, it's not exactly the same thing that came out of the traps no?
Also, we seem to get this topic every other month with the exact same answers, am I the only one who notices?

Can you post links because I don't recall the same thread every other month, in fact it's been quite a while since the subject was raised, excusing the thread asking whether it was a success or not which is a different question.
The PS3 has changed a lot, I love my 3D Bluray movies which no doubt if I had bought a regular Bluray player 3 years ago I would have had to replace it by now to get the feature. I think the 360 has changed far more though and the PS3 has been forced to try and stay on parity. My statement was in defence of Sony by the way, I was admitting that it's easy to say what can be done differently now but all thats happened this generation would have been impossible to call.
