Well yeah, because for one thing if it was sub-$399 machine at launch, that would have meant less complicated hardware (aka easier to program for than CELL) plus no Blu-Ray player (which was retailing for nearly $1000 for standalone players at the time).

It probably would have been released alongside the 360 in 2005 as well instead of being delayed a year to include Blu-Ray. Sony wouldn't have lost as much 3rd party support as they did early on, and M$ wouldn't have been able to get as many exclusive deals or convince as many 3rd parties to go multiplatform like Square.

Of course, no Blu Ray means no FFXIII in all it's native 1080p, lossless audio glory that Sony fans still fantasize over and blame M$ for ruining Square's would-be masterpiece, so either way, FFXIII would have still sucked lol.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
