I guess I need to copy paste what I said to you before, because you obviously didn't get it.

I'll get to my point, which is that I think you're bringing up demons from the past to try to paint current Sony enthusiasts on the site in a bad manner, which is quite disingenuous. If you mention that some people are being hypocritical in their behaviour or just acting a certain way, I feel you should at least back it up with some evidence, or it just results in you incorrectly labelling a whole group of people currently using the site as something they are not. Which isn't a nice thing to do.

Couldn't have said it better.

So both of you don't remember how the mantra was that having a very low latency main memory as XDR was the best thing? I know that defending a non unified memory pool is so last generation... But I'm sure that both of you know that if Sony would have decided to use a non unified memory architecture, that would be the good thing to do, most people here defend what their beloved company does, not what it would be the best thing to do.

Please, don't try to rewrite the history. Not so long ago it was a good thing that the PS3 was hard to develop for, because that way the best development teams woud do impressive games at the end of the generation, now it's a great thing to be a developers friendly console. Even Haz Kirai himself said so, and most people here defended that: http://news.cnet.com/sony-ps3-is-hard-to-develop-for-on-purpose/ and people defended that:
