Sony Sony Sony, the big bully that finally got put in its place. I love the system and don't want it to die. Sony needs to realize that the past can only lead you so far. Here are a couple of suggestions I recommend for PS3 to survive this generation.
1st: MORE EXCLUSIVES OR pay for DLC like M$ did (plenty of people wont buy GTA4 DLC but i'm sure that was a factor when buying the game).
2: Can I get a free demo or beta on the PS3 that they make you pre-order to get on 360.
3: Home isn't what we have all been waiting for - send your resources elsewhere.
4: Blah Blah Blah - Price Drop - Blah
5: Clean the PS3 interface up a bit and make it more customizable.
6: Pack in a headset, remote, or something to beef up the "included list"
7: Redesign the console like PS2 slim - make cheaper
8: Limited Edition - stick to it "im looking at you gunmetal PS3"
9: Multiple Colors without having to pay $100 more
10: Free Online Gaming Network · Top Tier BluRay Player · Web Browser · Built in WiFi (Printed right on the box) or something similiar.
11: Free Burnout Paradise installed on HDD
Some of these are feasable - but Sony needs something to spark the want factor.
Oh yah - F*CK THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA - They have more to worry about in this country other than game machines.
All great options, but one other tip you forgot that includes Gamefly. Purchasing the copy you have in your possession for $10 - $20 less than what it is brand new (plus free shipping on box, free codes and instructions that are included in retail) Even hitting their current new years sale - I saw over 20 games less than $15 on the PS3, Wii, and 360.
