Forums - Sony - Jack Tretton respounds to Apples "PSP is Out of touch!" comment.

you answered your own question it has things for everyone. I'm not sure how many iphone/itouch has been sold but I believe its more than both those two. I don't consider it the same though. Your right it so much more than just a gaming device calling it such would be an insult.



I'm not martin luther king. I don't have a dream. I have a plan

Sell a man a fish you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish you just ruined a perfect business opportunity.

We didn't emerge out of the stone age because we ran out of stones. Its time to be proactive not reactive.

Sounds like you have a boy genius. He's gonna love games when he's older that's for sure!

LOL thanks. I hope he is smart but really there is only two buttons for the most part you use when gaming on the Iphone the directional touch button and an action button. some of the more complex games will have more on the screen but its fairly simple. People who don't game like it for that very reason. really easy to get into.

It's kind of funny that apple is *trashing* the psp.......

look, the PSPgo is going to be a big hit, why? Well, Sony will be able to offer games for more competitive pricing when they dont have to pay a distributor to ship software to a retailer or pay the retailer for their cut of the whole thing either. So, sony will be able to get a much higher margin for their games than they have been and are also leveraging other competencies like putting HOME on the PSP, as well as offering online gaming in the future if they dont already have this on the PSP. Sorry but i'm going to buy one for myself for XMAS.

Either way, the PSP is becoming a big hit and it's getting bigger.

The psp 3000 is underpriced in my opinion, the value is too great for it to be $169. Then again the consumers know nothing of this value

"How incredibly ignorant, but what else coming from Tretton? P.S Tretton it seems the vast majority of gamers don't agree with you."

Actually, Apples comment is ignorant, too, no?

I like Trentton. IMO he is one of the best in the industry today and is very well respected. Loved his comeback, too!

My cheap POS mp3 player is finally starting to die after a few years. Last year I temporarily replaced it with a PSP. To be honest it really didn't work out that well. The damn thing was too big for my pocket, I couldn't hold out to it while working and if I wanted to play a game during a break I'd have to lug around the UMDs as well. Which is a damn shame because it's an excellent media player. However with the Go it pretty much eliminates the problems that kept me from using it the way I wanted to in the first place.



Awesome comeback jack.
I love this fire that Sony has had this year. It's been great. With Sony back in the trenches , Apple needs to watch out. Don't want to be on their shit list. Ask Nintendo and Sega.



apple you arrogant fucks, I just laugh at how arrogant you are, seriously saying that going into a store is hard to find a hot tittle, how about trying to dig through tons of shit that the apple store is filled with just to find the one decent game, allowing any thing and everything is not a greate move, also their is a difference between a game and a non gaming app...how about you arrogant fucks stop manipulating numbers, do some quality control on the games on your platform, and came back when your on the same level as Nintendo's old school gameboy, cuz right now your just a joke in the gaming scene.
