It's like Kaz Hirai is distributing free consoles and ending world hunger or something. He began selling a way overpriced console, with few exclusives, and he thought: "Yeah people who were loyal to the PS2 will be loyal to the PS3." He thought the gamers are like dogs, loyal to the owner (in this case the company like Sony). Well his plan backfired and he **** up hard. Now the price has been reduced, there are lots of good exclusives, AFTER 3 YEARS almost. Yes there has been an increase in sales, and there are more games coming, but still hugging him for taking much more money than he should? What a joke.

This kinda seems like the conversation is steering towards system wars, but lemme try and equal this out.Overpriced console? Orly? Original 60GB 360 (gaming system) = 249.99. Original Panasonic DMP-BD10 (one of the first Blu Ray Players) = 1000.00 with a price drop down to only 599.99. Orignal 60GB PS3(gaming system+ blu ray player)= 599.99. So really if you would have given an Xbox360 a Blu Ray player it would cost you 849.99! So who had the overpriced system then?
Well that was a while back, so what about now? Right now you can find a Blu Ray player for just 99.99. The price drop on an Xbox360 120GB no longer includes games or an HDMI cable, but its now 299.99. So, get that Blu Ray player and Xbox 120GB for just 399.98! A 120GB PS3 Slim includes Blu Ray for 299.99. SO who's got the overpriced console then AND now?
I think Kaz Hirai can have his hug now. He forgives you. :D
