AWKWARD ZOMBIE

Don't be stupid Syobon.
Ten points to gribbindoor.

Penny Arcade seems to agree somewhat.

I could talk about Sony being unprofessional about its reaction to MS, but honestly MS has dug itself so deep in its "treat the customers as a given, do whatever you like to screw with them" mentality that they are even more unprofessional in a way.

MS has a long way to go before they can even begin a Sony counter maneuver.

Maneuvers such as going in a straight line an not running into everything you see.

to be fair, now that's going to be very hard, as they've already triggered the dynamite on the path to go off should they take that route

And their car is made out of fire would and gasoline.

Microsoft is having their PS3 moment. I'm interested what non-gaming enthusiasts will choose though. The dudebros and the more casual players.

Pat of TBFP mentions something called the third console curse in a recent interview. Basically said that everytime a console maufacturer goes for the third console, N64, Saturn, PS3, it fails and damages the company.

Sounds like another take on the 'difficult third album' thing faced by bands/musicians.

Not sure I buy into it.

Odd numbers always suck.

Odd Numbered Star Trek movies, too.

Well, up until Nemesis broke the cycle.

Nintendo's third console was the Virtual Boy, not the N64.

There's lots of multiplatforms. And with that, Sony wins out. Same games, but a stronger machine that is also a lot cheaper? I'd go with that.

Technically, the VB was classified as a handheld.

Hex is being shown at E3 right now on the Gamespot livestream. Shame I'm at my internship.

That's assuming casual gamers (like me) and frat boys even understand or pay attention to the hardware and shit like that (which I kind of don't).
