I hate both Microsoft and SONY the consumer is now a pawn in both their attempts to be top of the sales charts.... lets be honest Price fixing is done by both companys. (just like Nintendo in the 90's) and its all about profit and squeezing cash out of everyone for everything. Sega was the only company that really pushed the games industry with games such as Shenmue etc but guess what.... they have also had to give in and now seem to just make re hashed games, arcade fighters and lame re issues on multi format.
I should have stopped reading at "companys", but did not. I did however manage to quit at Shenmue mentioned as some wonder-title. Laughable.
