For a great example of Sony being ridiculously old fashioned, just look at the tape loading like mechanism of the PSP. It's ridiculous. And the UMD proprietory format (Sony when will you stop trying to create and control the next big format. They've failed so many times it's not funny any more).

Are you serious? ;) The Bluray vs HD-DVD war was irrelevant to most people. It's a stopgap until we all go digital. They were trying to squeeze out one last physical media...

:) That's an interesting perspective, and I agree with your anti-Sony sentiment. But, I believe blueray has sold many PS3s and will be worth their trouble in the long run.

(I've only seen one PS3 game I've wanted to play that wasn't also on 360.)
