Sony has made a lot of mistakes with the release of the PS3. Hopefully they will learn if they have another chance with another console. Sony has lost millions of dollars over the PS3 because of the high price. They put way too much technology into their product that is not necessary for a gaming system. Sony is already making way more mony on all of their other Sony products that they will always attempt to be in a console war. Sony is hurting themselves because they sell their console for way less than it is actually worth, even with the 'stripped down' version of it. Not only are they hurting themselves, but they are hurting the publishing and developing companies that are 'attempting' to make exclusives for the PS3. Konami is in deep trouble if they stick with releasing MGS4 for the PS3. In order for Konami to even try to make a profit from MGS4, they will need to sell over 1 million copies the first day of the release. One of the times that they had delayed the game was to wait it out and see if they could cause more hype for the games to generate more pre-order sales. This most recent time of the delay, they have been consulting if they should make the game for the 360, just so they could manage to make a profit from all the money that they put into the game. I would not be surprised if MGS4 did release for the 360 after it comes out for the PS3. SCEA and Factor 5 lost a good deal of money over their exclusive release of Lair for the PS3. Rockstar became more aware of the PS3 troubles and made GTA4 for the 360 before their release.I'm really sorry that Namco had to release Time Crisis 4 for the PS3, they lost more than they could handle, thankfully they have their Soulcaliber games still going for them.
I just hope that Sony will be a little more wise with their next console and not drag their developing teams with them...........so sad.......
