Hirai: Microsoft keeps copying Sony!

[acn010]

lol I am just joking. I really don't want the PS3 to fail, I love Nintendo and I couldn't be talking right now without Microsoft. Sony's Playstation provided me years of fun and I really don't want them to do something wrong.

Truth is, Sony's controller was in production before the Wii, which would could actually mean that Sony didn't copy. The guide button was a needed addition and they promised the same internet play on the PS2 and it skipped along. Plus the blu-ray thing can get mighty confusing, I still don't know if it will become a betamax or not...

i thought sony was doing the old boomerang thingy till everybody complaind that the control was $#@!ty, then sony took a desperate measure to give more advantage, for people. like that, sony took the fancy idea of copying the nintendo wii motion sensers thingy in their control plus they had changes the shape and still remain the silver color PLUS put a button in the middle( like the xbox360)
sony is pretty slick when technology entertainmentis out

off- topic...sort of
porn will decide the format war anyway
if blu ray has a better porn collection then blu ray will win.
thats why vhs won over betamax,

Porn while not follow Blu-Ray for the same reason it did not follow betamax. Cost. Blu-Ray manufacturing costs are extremly higher than HD-DVD.

Actually, Sony copyrighted an idea for an online service that is essentially what Xbox live is now, and this copyright was made 2 years before live was launched.

But yeah the controller was a bad idea

Actually I agree with you but for different reasons, Porn has become pretty much divorced from a physical media, I know porn DVD's exist and I'm sure there will eventually be both HD-DVD and Blu-ray titles but so much more material seems to be available in the form of downloadble content (either paid for or P2P). Its likely that Porn will be at the forefront of online digital distribution.

Well if we go by the 2005 E3 convention Sony copied from Nintendo & Xbox ideas where there own> Don't get me wrong i love playstation and mi xbox 360 is nothing but a paper wait. But if we go by this article playstation hows all for loosing this accusations that everybody copied them.
