Forums - Sales - Aaron Greenberg Responds To Statements Made By Kaz Hirai : PS3 is dead

lanjiaona on 21 January 2009

Aaron Greenberg to respond to the statements made by Kaz. Here’s what Aaron had to say in response:

This sounds like an old hardware company that’s comfortable with its market position. That complacent attitude is out of touch with where the industry and consumer is today. This generation won’t be won over just hardware specs, but who can out-innovate when it comes to online and software. This is the kind of stuff that’s in our DNA, and frankly moves the console war onto our home court.

I’m confident we will outsell the PS3 throughout the entire generation by providing more innovation and building the best and broadest games library while growing our entertainment experiences on the leading online network. With a U.S. install base lead now of more than 7 million units (according to NPD), I can’t imagine any scenario where the PS3 can catch up with us. In fact, even if you doubled the current PS3 sales and Xbox 360 remained flat, they couldn’t close the gap until 2014.

Wow! Aaron just through his gauntlet down. I mean he really put it down! This could get interesting.

Why do you always post things from other sites without links? That is assuming you didn't make this up.

On another note, where did he say the PS3 is dead? Did you also make that up?

IT sounds like he's describing Nintendo there. He must be, because the Wii provides a web browser for online, but the 360 doesn't.

I don't believe he said in any part of that statement that the PS3 was dead. What is this. PS3 fanboy antagonisation? Character Assassination? Both?



Tease.

No link.

Thread title is fabricated.

That's two strikes...
