Would people calm down in this thread? I'll name two examples:

1. Squilliam: Calling the PS3 a failure (and a fantastic failure!) is not appropriate in any context.

2. Drkohler: If you want to refer to a moderator as a "useless twit," then make sure you keep it in your head and don't type it out. I'll let you get away with a warning.

:(

I know this is dangerous territory but i'll venture here anyway.

The  3rd gen RX7 was a fantastic success as a car, and a fantastic failure for Mazda that almost killed the company. The first two were both great cars but when they made the last one more expensive and lost the idea that made the first two great, they failed.

So the PS3 is a fantastic success as a system and a fantastic failure from a financial perspective. Its quite an interesting parellel between a car model and an entertainment model.

The point I was making was not that the PS3 as a product was a failure, its a great media player/games system. Financially? Wow... yep I won't go there again... Its the point thats paraded again and again with referrence to the Xbox/Xbox360.

 

 



Tease.
