One of the marketing higher-ups at Sony just posted a manifesto of sorts on the company’s official blog. He stresses what more than a few people have theorized, that 2008 will be the breakout year for the PS3. The other way to look at that is that it was a total bust beforehand, but whatever.
The highlights:
— Lots of halfway decent, exclusive games this year, including MGS 4 and Little Big Planet
— Some sort of expansion into digital media delivery
— PLAYSTATION Network cards available by the end of the year
Big things!
Also, anyone else notice Sony’s insistence on capitalizing all the letters in the word “PlayStation” when used in conjunction with their online store. PLAYSTATION, then, just like a Japanese heel pro wrestler. (How obscure is that?)
“halfway decent games like mgs4″!?. Somebody sounds like a xbox fanboy who’s still bitter about the whole hd-dvd thing.
Yes, I’m bitter because a format I never supported, either financially or ideologically, was beaten by a format I don’t support financially or ideologically.
Having said that, I appreciate your passion and zeal for life. Don’t let that candle burn out before it brightens the whole wide world.

I agree. What you call “a total bust,” I, and at least a million other people, call(ed) an enjoyable console. Maybe its lagged in third behind the other two major consoles in terms of overall sales, but that hardly makes it a bust in its first year.
Plus Sony hasn’t spent a billion dollars fixing a faulty design. Just saying.
can I just say that you are all losers……..? well just thought id ask before i said you were all losers. PS3 FTW!
