the 360 seems to be a flop, while it may garner awesome sales because it has not 4th Gen competitor, from what I've heard, it's pricey, not much of an upgrade and has lots of bugs...which is nothing is not typical of any Microsoft product.
I note two things in the article, one they mention "copyright protections" which I recall something goin around about games remembering that they had been played on a certian console and therefore being unable to be played anywhere else, therefore negating rentals and loaning and trading games. Anyone got any info on that?
econdly I note their games will all be made assuming the PS3 has a hard drive, which may not even be included with the console, which IMO is a BAD move. Though I have no doubt that in the intial sales larger stores may inclue the two in a "buy them both, get discount" deal, if that were to happen. Sony may be stupid, but stores sure arent.
EDIT: btw, if Nintendo does not launch before christmas, and with the Xbox already being spread around, it is likly that Sony will have the Christmas Market cornered, which will be bad for Nintendo if they end up releasing the next year since all the people who can only get one console and didnt want the Xbox would have gone for the PS3. Aisde from those waiting for the Revolution of course.
