Whether its a good choice or not for gaming, it severly damaged the PS3 and halted the momentum of the Sony brand thus was a huge mistake. I suppose UMD isn't that high, but I was trying to round out a list. |
Still too early to say if Blu-ray was indeed a thorn to the PS3. People also thought DVD playback on the PS2 was a mistake, with quite a brouhaha. People were buying PS2s as a cheap DVD player rather than a gaming machine.
Hasn't that been the case for PS3: With hardware being sold, but not a significant software attach rate to boot?
