    Sony anymore is like a weird comedy of errors. Almost amusing to see them blunder and shoot themselves in the foot like this.

    Both Microsoft and Sony have been messing up a lot lately, from Red ring of Death, cooling problems and DVD-scratching at Microsoft, till pricing of the PS3, 2 rootkit-problems and a few other errors at Sony's corner.

    It really is too bad, because in case of the consoles, they both have something good about them (although I favor the PS3 over the 360, but that's a personal perference). I hope both companies sort out their problems really quick, because it isn't making them look better.

    All big companies will make certain amount of mistakes. But that is not an excuse for doing the same thing twice.

    The problem is that big companies are under a lot of pressure to release products.
    Unfortunately due to target pricing and release dates, companies start to take shortcuts.

    This is when things start to go wrong! :waah:
