Ken Kutoragi also received the Lifetime Achievement Award.


Nice Job Ken, You deserve it.

Why does he deserve it? Not like Sony got to where they are with smart management and creative ideas. They bullied their way in to the console market and pushed everyone around since they had the biggest wallet. The whole "losing money" on a console was started by Sony and has made impossible for smaller (most likely more creative) companies to compete.

Thats until someone came along just as big and started pushing back. He doesn't look so hot since...


 You have no idea what your talking about. Sony was brought into the console market thanks to Nintendo so blame Nintendo for Sony being #1 for 2 generations. 

 Ken received the award because he successfully expanded the game industry to the massive industry it is today.  

Everyone knows the Sony/Nintendo saga which was unfortunate for both parties as that could have been a legendary partnership.

Yes Sony did expand the industry greatly...but so did Britney Spears and Backstreet Boys when it comes to music industry. You don't see them getting awards for their achievements. The videogames pie has gotten bigger for sure but it doesn't taste any better in my opinion.

All I'm saying is that if Nintendo didn't come up with the brilliant idea that is the Wii they'd probably be gone software side like Sega, mainly thanks to the arms race started by Sony and Ken who still believes 8 CPU's on a processor means better console.
