Grow up you sad little fanboy. In case you didn't notice theres been two versions of the PS3 as well.
Then theres the hack incident, pathetic online support which has taken them endless updates to get up to a decent standard, removal of Linux, and so it goes on. The fact is that it took Sony an extra year and a much more expensive product to end up with a console which when it comes to actual GAMES is pretty much the same to the point that most folk couldn't tell the difference between the same game on both consoles if their life depended on it. Also for the year I had my 360 after release you must've still been playing on a PS2 so really whos the chump?
Honestly, I have to ask, whats the loyalty to a major corporation (any of them) when all they ALL want is your money, they don't actually give a monkeys about you so why care about them and defend them more than you'd defend your own mother? Do you work for them? Did they give you a bung?
