it isnt... so why do you love it so...

Stop assuming you know me. I have stated numerous time, I will buy one once the price go down. I have always wanted a smaller PSP and without that noisy UMD to carry around.

DARTH! Don't you realise the importance of this?

The PSP GO sold 8K in Week 1

8-1 = 7

You know what this means!

So what you are saying is... Sony are just shafting their fans, supporters and consumers as long as they can until they lower the price to something reasonable...

...and that they didn't sell it at a price that was correct, fair and reasonable but at what they could get away with for maximum profit from people they knew would buy regardless because it was a playstation product and those people are loyal and love the brand?

Talk about unrequited love.....

Not many brands have this option - to charge as they please... those that do tend to be for luxury goods. Sony are shafting their fans here.. and it stinks.

You didn't hate on Nintendo for doing it with the Wii. You don't hate on MS for doing it with LIVE.

Why hate on Sony for doing it with the Go?


I dont hate sony for doing it....  I am making a point...

people here tell me that Sony love gamers, look after their Playstion fanbase and are all round good guys... 

maybe $ony is just as relevant as m$?   maybe more so actually...

 

@psrock  apologies it wasnt really aimed at you, I was generalising

 

That's why they were losing ~$200 per PS3 on launch.

Sony aren't the ones who charge $100 for a wireless adapter.

Of course, that's irrelevant, and let's not turn this into a "MICROSOFT ARE MORE EVIL THAN $ONY!" "NUH UH!" thread, please.

The PSP Go is a premium model, they're not forcing anyone to buy it. If you want UMD and you want to pay less, get a PSP-3000. That option was deliberately left available to prevent people complaining. But apparently, people are disgusted by having the option to pay more for extra features, with one feature taken out.

Wow, that's pretty low...



This is the true definition of owning.

If they fucked up or not... They were still losing $200 per console which no matter how you try to spin it, isn't bad for the consumer.

If they really were as bad as MS for doing such stuff it would have launched at $800+.

What i find funny though, is that they STILL aren't making a profit on PS3 hardware. Yet they are just as bad as MS... lol



                            

come on Kowenicki, if anyone defines it, its most certainly you.
