Sony is really funny. At E3 2005, they touted 1080P as 'higher definition' and sang the praises of having 2 HDMI ports on PS3 and how this would 'future proof' the console.
Fast foward to E3 2006
Now, a console with just 1 HDMI port will cost you $600, while the $500 version will not even support 1080P.
The controller loses the rumble feature. Sony says it's not because they lost the patent infringement lawsuit for using the technology in Ps2, it's because rumble is 'last gen' technology. Then they go and add 10 year old tilt technology to try and mimmick Nintendo. The truth is, Sony couldn't stomach paying to use the rumble feature because Microsoft owns a large part of the company they will be paying.
I give up on Sony. After all the PS2 breakage, the unfulfilled hype and outright lies, I just wont buy a PS3. I'll get a Revo (hate the new name) and a 360.
