Forums - Sales - So let me get this straight, Microsoft is chocking sony to death

yeah, square has said before that they weren't paid. Besides, sony is looking to make level 5 their new asset so, you can forget about square.
the two top square producers are supposedly trying to leave S-E and go to sony.

What an awful argument from a fanboy. Stolen??? Cheating??? Eh? I bet there are a many embarassed PS3 fans out there after reading this.

Look mate, Sony messed up, blame them. I for one ain't paying over the odds for a machine that has inferior games. I can get get a Blu Ray player quite cheaply these thank you very much. Drop down in price, release a lot more quality in house exclusives and then I might part with my hard earned cash.

Namco, Square Enix etc.....they are not inhouse and don't have to release a game on one system. It's bad business sense anyway.

Just be glad the JPN haven't embraced the 360 otherwise Sony would've been in HUGE trouble.

This is the exact reason why restructuring happened at sony. they realized they were in danger.

As to all those people who say sony was arrogant, its not arrogance that did them in. It's an occurence called "group think". They simply had too many people saying yeah yeah yeah when they should have been saying no no no.
The thing is, yeah yeah yeah worked before, twice.

 

Most likely the desks at Sony HQ were resembling Pacino's desk at the end of Scarface.

But hey, let's call it groupthink =D

Anyways, a lot of bad decisions.

There is much more to the point im trying to make, but I dont feel like writing an extended essay on it..

Another huge point is, that everytime sony fights back, microsoft fights back with a bigger punch.

 

Sony did the same thing to Dreamcast.

Face it Sony have been the schoolyard bully for two generations and now they are getting a pounding from another bigger bully who packs a harder punch

I guess what goes around really does come around !

Trust me. It was arrogance that did Sony in. If you care to find out how I would be glad to tell you. You just say the word. The only restructuring Sony has done was to drop the value of the consolem in parts. Thats all they'll give you. Nothing more.

whatru talking about they let go of kutaragi



everything you said is 100 % right



leo-j,

would u have done things differently if you were in M$ position? There's no such thing as cheating in business because every corporation would be guilty if that was the case.

Sony needs to conjure up a new strategy or plan wisely for their next entry into the console wars.

Hmmm @pristine.
I think MS gets sued like weekly for antitrust. They've paid out like 9 billion. Their business strategy is to dominate the market and destroy the competition and pay the effing fine. They just won the market and brand recognition for the next 20 years.

Thats a very bold statement. 20 years is a VERY long time. I bet lots of people thought nintendo was infallible after the nes and snes eras and sony after ps1 and ps2 but we've all been proven otherwise. M$ has never come close to winning any generation and you're already projecting for the next 20 years. Remember that sony and M$ are battling for a DISTANT 2nd, the wii has no competition.

Their business strategy works well in the PC market. Can't really blame them for trying to apply it to the gaming industry.
