Yes but it is the fact that he's admitting the possibility of failure that's the issue, Sony has been the number one for two gens so its a big theing that they are admitting the possibility

[QUOTE="DireToad"][QUOTE="FatalDomain"]Its funny how you guys are arguing over the semantics of the article. For a company that is suppose to be the dominating force of the industry, comments such as these should give you a little indication that things arent all rosey in Sonyland!!! The possibility of anything failing in your product line means you already know the fate of your product and only chance can determine if its really dead or not.

What happened to all the 4D, 120 fps, dual this, Blu-ray that?!?!? As each month passes, the PS3 is being chipped down to size and exposed as the faulty product it is and Sony is fully aware of this dilema they have gotten themselves into.....

So in a nutshell when you have Kenny K admitting the decline of the quality of Sony's hardware in combination of the CEOs recent comments, you should know the sh!t has really hit the fan....

Game On....

How is the PS3 a "faulty product"?



Where have you been since E3 05?!? The product on the market is no where near the product touted as the savior of the gaming industry at E3 05 (hell I would have bought the E3 05 version at full price!!!)....Everything about the PS3 is a complete lie with the only thing that remained the same is the sleek shell the console is housed in. As a gamer if you dont feel a lil cheated of the experience that was promised by Sony, then you should consider yourself a fanboy....And dont give me that "give it time" stuff about the PS3 because it was suppose to blow the competition out of the water at launch, but it is currently underperforming on all fronts (hardware, software, and online)...

This gen Sony pushed out a broken system and everyone in the industry (including Sony) knows it. The only people holding onto the ideal of the dominate PS3 are the hardcore fans refusing to let go of that ideal regardless of all the facts presented to them....

Game On...

He said "if we fail". So he doesn't flat out say they're gonna fail. But he still thinks it's a possibility.
Not a good train of thought for a CEO. :?

I think that if you are the CEO of a company, and this is your champion product, you should speak about it with a more positive air. We will NOT fail sounds a lot better than "If." Using "If" resonates doubt.

  Yeah, beyond ownage that you really think the CEO said PS3 is going to fail.  He says "If" we fail.  Not "We are going to fail".  There is a big difference.

The PS3 sold 50% less this month (Februaury) in NPD sales than last month (January) and yes, they were on shelves.

The PS3 was outsold by the GBA in February as well.

"If we fail" is an acceptable response.

"Wii is a wonderful device, but has a different target audience. If we fail, it is because we positioned PS3 as the Mercedes of the video game field

I love the thing about sony is a hardware company. It also does software. If you notice if the playstation didn't have any software, then it couldn't have sold well >

[QUOTE="tape990"]Wow even sony thinks there ps3 is going to fail. OhhSnap50893
Apparently you didn't read the article. It said if the PS3 does fail, not when the PS3 fails.

Can't you see the lack of confidence he has for his system? I...you know what forget it, it's like talking to a computer, every tiny little thing has to be explained.

A lot of folks do not seem to understand this the CEO of Sony not just the head of the games division and when the CEO expresses doubt that should relly set off warning bells. No CEO if they truly believe in there product would ever bring up the fact that they could fail. For him to even express the idea that its possible the PS3 could fail is a bad sign.

Weather it happens or not if your a dev and you see this you have to wonder if your making a mistake by making a game for the system.

So now that Sonys own boss has some doubt lets see how this coulp be spun to make positive news.

He said "if we fail". So he doesn't flat out say they're gonna fail. But he still thinks it's a possibility.
Not a good train of thought for a CEO. :?

Let me get this straight? "a format that could be the next Betamax" is entirely supported by Lemmings who seem to believe HD-DVD is going to win despite all the evidence to the contrary. Various comments of confidence by Sony execs is called "ownage" by Lemmings and is trimmed with "PS3 suxxorz" ect. Then Howard Stringer even MENTIONS its a possibility that the PS3 could fail and the Lemmings are all over it again calling it "ownage"? Did I get all of that correct? If so, how the heck do you reconcile those three things?

What's wrong with his answer? It shows the PS3 as a "top class" product by comparing it to Mercedes.
