I don't really know why Corsi said this if this isn't the case? I don't know that Sony is necessarily unsavory with their use of kickstarter, but in my opinion it certainly isn't a completely honest use of the platform.
I actually liked your argument about Sony making a profit if it gets released on PS4, and that's why they should have zero involvement, since consumers are taking the risk. I actually can't disagree with you on your dislike of Sony doing this (or rather, thinking it's a bad move on Sony's part to do that).
I guess I just have a hard time getting all up in arms with it, because Sony isn't running the KS, Sony isn't pocketing our money. This project would be 100% the same if Sony was out of the picture, the project would just not get marketing from Sony, or get a port on PS4. Okay.
So I'm having a hard time being sold 100% on how Sony's involvement (in the capacity they are)...is bad. Or a bad thing for KS in general. I dunno. But I at least see your argument, and where you are coming from with it. I would take more issue if Sony actually was pocketing our money in the KS, and they didn't have to finish the project. If they were taking our money, making us take all the risk (and not having to deliver the final product), then I would say that is a pretty shitty thing for a company to do.
