PlayStation 3's launch in 2006 does not have to be a tragedy

[Panajev2001a]

I hope they launch it when it's ready and don't rush it out.

Good post Pana.

+1 PanaStation.

Thank you [insert Nickname for Singh ], I do hope too that the console is not rushed out: it did not work for the Saturn and it would not work for PlayStation 3.

If they rush it out they will pay through the nose for it ( ultra expensive for them to manufacture, low volumes ) and if this impacts negatively the resources they would have given to PlayStation 4's R&D that will be a quite long term damage to the company.

I think that the R&D needed behind future consoles, with their aim to become much more than just advanced gaming machines ( even there they have to increase performance a lot to show a credible increase in the quality of the produced Visuals ), is increasing quite considerably.

I would not be surprised if the console industry were to re-align to a 6 years product cycle ( time to advance the technology [spreading the R&D over 6 years], work more toward also making it a little bit less expensive to manufacture and more time making high profits with the then current generation of consoles ).

It would help developers as they would have more time to make the money they have invested on the various platforms back and it would allow the manufacturers to receive more profits from their consoles ( it is easier to make back the invested money and then some over a course of 6 years compared to a 5 years period ).

It would also fight against Transformation 60's goal of higher profit margins and of healing the parts of Sony corp. which were faltering somewhat.

I completely forgot that 2006 is the 60th birthday of Sony corp.: PlayStation 3 will be released at that time in Japan ( Fall 2006 or a bit earlier in the North American territory as well ), I just feel it

And exactly which moderator should I talk to???

And would you(You didn't leave your name) care to clarify which part of my responses did you find offensive??? I found absoluely nothing wrong with my replies and considering the lack of an "objective" flames standard on this board, it is impossible for me to figure out why and who keeps deleting my replies for what reason.(No one ever told me what was specifically wrong with my replies, he just keeps deleting to intimidate me).

What is acceptable to one mod is considered a flame by another mod. It all depends on the system loyalty of mods. The funny thing is, I don't even have a system loyalty; I just critize certain things based on flaws and deficiencies I see. Compare me to certain system advocates who do post biased opinions everyday and go unnoticed, while I am constantly harassed for even posting news. Is it safe for me to assume that this board technically is a Sony-oriented board and Sony critics are not welcome here because of moderator biase??? If so, just say so, and I will understand. Mods are humans and can be biased, I understand this much and there is no shame in admitting one's biase.

The present moderation policy is flawed and lacks objectivity. Somebody must come up with a moderation policy that is considered objective and acceptable by all.

Here is my case. I PMed Sonic after he locked my Yomiuri CELL article thread and Sony getting booted out of government research program thread. His replies...

I really don't see the signifigance of the article. What I see is someone having a constnt personal attack on Sony and will do anything to prove that they have no chance of survival.

What you can observe from his response;

1. Sonic considers that Yomiuri article has nothing to do with Sony's console biz.
2. Sonic considers Sony an individual and that I am launching a personal attack on Sony.

Be the judge for yourself.

Maybe this is part of the problem: just a suggestion.

Deadmeat, why don't you and I bring this stuff on PM or on any IM service ( I will PM you my AOL or MSN nickname if you agree ) and leave the non-technical Sony: Hero or Menace kind of posting outta here ?

Deadmeat, your track record on the Next Generation Online boards, various revisions of the Gaming-Age forums and here at Beyond 3D show that often you have been a bit different from this "Knight of Logic and Truth in Shiny Armour" (TM) that you have portrayed yourself to be.

A lot of times you went on great lengths bending truth, selective quoting, etc... just to push a point.

I remember when you arrived on these boards at the beginning: a LOT of people gave you a chance as you were after-all new to this board.

By the looks of things a good number of those people does not feel exactly the same way anymore.

Do you really think it is an Internet conspiracy that you got yourself banned from tons of online forums ?

Did that happen by chance ? All because of Sony fanboys ?

I have a love-hate relationship with your posting: you are not dumb, you do have some sense of logic and intuition, but sometimes I feel like talking to a wall... there is never a situation in which you seem to even consider what I or anyone else is saying if it contraddicts your theories.

I do not mind people criticizing Sony and their approach ( neither Singh nor DCharlie are Sony fans, but BOY do I like talking with them... guess why ? ) and I do like people challenging even a bit aggressively what I think and believe in.

I keep going from "darn, someone ban him already" to "darn, it was not so bad sometimes arguing with him, he was tenacious".

:?

I am confused

Face it: anyone here can be wrong including you ( try to focus more on presenting what you say as just your opinion, not the Holy Gospel, but just the opinion of a normal guy ).

Face it: admitting publically that you are wrong and seeking clarification will not hurt your credibility, but instead will enhance it by several orders of magnitude.
