I bet they give it 2.5/10 ;)

Hah, that would be the perfect review score.



We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai

It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps

We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick

At what point in time do we start viewing this site as a bad wii60 joke told too many times? Funny...but after you know the punchline it doesn't get the same laugh.

The punchline is the people who get angry at the site.

I have a lot of respect for Arstechnica and have been a forum member there since 2000 (and a reader well before then).  Their reviews usually don't buy into the hype and cut through the BS, so I tend to give them more weight than run-of-the-mill reviewers.
