What an interesting marketing position.

So the damage control spin starts already?

WickedLaharl · Mar 23, 2007

can you smell the fear?

Wiitard · Mar 23, 2007

Of course it is.

It has PASSED BEYOND...

Nope. Only the healthy smell of a decomposing corpse.

ghst · Mar 23, 2007

This weeks been like a total reliving of E3.

cartoon_soldier · Mar 23, 2007

You mean 5D and 240 FPS now? Damn.

DarkJediKnight · Mar 23, 2007

What a stupid thing to say. They should really shut up and start delivering games.

Pellham · Mar 23, 2007

so the PS3 is like the Neo Geo competing with an NES and a Genesis?

aaaaa0 · Mar 23, 2007

:lol :lol :lol

Oh Sony you card.

:lol :lol :lol

Cooter · Mar 23, 2007

That must be why people are waiting until 2011 to purchase it.

Brak · Mar 23, 2007

Sony - Remember GDC, we had a good time right? Why can't you always love me??????
GAF - I'm sorry, you're too good for me. I don't deserve you.

VALIS · Mar 23, 2007

Considering their launches have been bombing all around the world tonight, they should probably take a more friendly, humble approach to things. But then, this is how they got in this position in the first place...

xaosslug · Mar 23, 2007

oh snap... get him boys!

lordfroakie · Mar 23, 2007

What about the horrible launch?

"We're not hooked into a world which was technologically average two years ago. You can't compare the two. If you're comparing the two we would have had the same technology and we'd be at the same price we're not," he said.

splattergnome · Mar 23, 2007

PS3 is the number one selling next-gen console.

Xavien · Mar 23, 2007

ah, after a brief interlude of Sony concentrating on its own problems and sorting them out, its back to talking about the competition again.

Good Job!

Haunted · Mar 23, 2007

'Next-gen doesn't start until we say so.'

StingerNLG · Mar 23, 2007

Ahhhh yes. In the face of humbling competition, ALWAYS get more arrogant.

And someone should tell big Ray no one is listening.

FtsH · Mar 23, 2007

worst damage control ever.

Jonnyram · Mar 23, 2007

It's nice to see Sony being so honest now, like Phil Harrison promised.

alistairw · Mar 23, 2007

Hey, remember a few weeks ago when we liked Sony? With that whole LittleBigPlanet thing?

Those were the days, eh?

GhaleonEB · Mar 23, 2007

Welp, Sony said next-gen begins when they said it did. Sounds like it begins.....NOW.

For ****s sake. :lol

MightyHedgehog · Mar 23, 2007

Dude, this shit is unprecedented. Feels like we're witnessing the worldwide meltdown of the ten-year dominator of console sales across the world. Crazy. I'll try to not crack a smile as I imagine them brainstorming how to right their sinking ship.

P.S. Oh, and that Sony tripe sounds like the typical bullshit spin. Of course, what do you want him to say? "Ummm, yeah...we're getting ****ed by our own hubristic bullshit."

argon · Mar 23, 2007

That's quite a compliment for the Wii, actually.

DCharlie · Mar 23, 2007

what on EARTH....

seriously - what happened to sony? i remember when they had this cool suave about them , now it just sounds like any old mouth piece can be a spokesman for them ... as long as what they say is ironically funny.

wonderfuldays · Mar 23, 2007

The end begins

cartoon_soldier · Mar 23, 2007

See, this way Sony can claim it is the best selling next-gen system.

PS Triple ballin yo!!

Sony Europe: PS3 is next gen, Wii and 360- "current gen

Why is Sony complimenting Nintendo all of a sudden?

MightyHedgehog · Mar 23, 2007

jj984jj said:

Must be that 4D power that allows the system to circumvent the current next-gen and go to the next-next-gen.

Slayer-33 · Mar 23, 2007

LOL... poor Sony.

TheGreatDave · Mar 23, 2007

I heard an interview on Radio 1 today where some guy from Sony said the PS3 was twice as powerful as it's nearest competitor. 360 is CLEARLY last old lame gen.

kevm3 · Mar 23, 2007

Sony just needs to shut up and show the games. They're getting whipped and STILL running their mouths. Pathetic.

This isn't really news...Sony making dumb statements is certainly nothing earth-shattering.

It's funny, though.

Diablohead · Mar 23, 2007

Sony are always full of it, this is no different.

Is it me or has this been one of the funniest weeks ever at gaf. First it was the Chad Warder videos, and then the DMC4 announcement, the DMC4 pettition, and now the Europe PS3 launch. Im probably missing something but this week has been ****ing hilarious.
