This Time, I Feel More Lucky Than Idiotic - PlayStation 3

Date of Review:  Dec 16, 2006
The Bottom Line: Title explanation - 6 years ago I titled my PS2 review 'I'm not sure if I feel lucky or like an idiot' because I was conflicted. I'm better now.
Review: Sony has enjoyed 10 years of dominance in gaming – both the PlayStation and PlayStation 2 were the best-selling consoles of its generation and the brand itself has practically become the ultimate household name in gaming. Yet despite this dominance,...

6 days in the rain and all I got was .....this thing.

Date of Review:  Mar 4, 2007
The Bottom Line: It's a diamond in the rough. Once it's polished and ready for market, come back and take another look.
Review: There seem to be two types of psychology when it comes to a game console developer's frame of mind. Creating something that's better for your image than the money you make off it, or something that makes tons of money, but makes you look cheap...
