Forums - Gaming - Reeves: “I know I’m not going to have to ring up the customer careline sayi

looks like the gloves are off.

When asked what the average [read: not ‘hardcore’, doesn’t care about Blu ray] consumer would choose if he/she went into a shop and saw the expensive PlayStation 3 compared with the cheaper 360, SCEE president David Reeves expects them to go for “the green machine” - though only because they haven’t done their research.

“The price will affect their decision,” he told EG. “Yes, if I haven’t got that much money to spend, I will go for, let’s say, the green machine. Because the salesman will say, ‘Well, it’s got all the games,’ and he wants to sell that machine.

“But there are people who come in having done their research, thinking, ‘PS3 has got all the games, it’s free to go online, it’s got a Blu-ray player.

“I know I’m not going to have to ring up the customer careline saying ‘I’ve got three red lights.’”

“We recognised that those numbers would go down because we did not drop the price,” added Reeves. “But we reached the targets we expected to reach under those assumptions.

"Its got all the games?" seriously the PS3 gets 2 awesome games and they forget about past library completely?


360 and the Wiis library > PS3's library.

Or do past games not count anymore?

I know I’m not going to have to ring up the customer careline saying ‘I’ve got three red lights.’”

Wow.

That's some serious mud slinging.

Very true, despite it nearly being common knowledge the 360's library > PS3's

And yet you threw the wii in there too even though you personally aren't sure you agree with the sentiment lol. You obviously came here to sling mud at the ps3 because of what Reeves said or irregardless of what Reeves said. I just wanted to point that out.

Seriously, read the OP again. Saying "its got all the games" was made on green machine, too. This is fair enough so I hope it ends your mere arguing here? Or did you expect Sony exec kneeling down to praise "supremacy" of xbox library?



PC library > Wii, PS3 and 360 library COMBINED :O

Yeah you're right but I know better than to say 360 > Wii & PS3 around here.

 

No actually before June last year all I ever heard was "The PS3 has games? what?!" and not many if any PS3 fans answered back ..

 

It seems a few good games come along and the PS3's library is gods gift to mankind

 

and of course I'm mud slinging, Reeves started it



 

That was unnecessary. But MS have made equally unnecesarry PR statements over the past year too.
