Yeah, it's a tad blatant. Sony would have been better off keeping their mouths shut. Even if there's a germ of truth to it, the fact that Sony is claiming its affecting other platforms when it isn't is enough to discredit them even further.
Bad enough they'd apparently throw a tantrum and refuse to make money from X-Box 360 owners. Worse that they'd then turn around and tell an obvious fib. If they weren't lying about their motives, they sure look like it now more than ever.
I'm very disappointed in Sony these days. First there was the whole Sony-BMG rootkit fiasco. Then there was Blu-ray, probably the biggest disaster to hit HD. And then there's just the little trickle of knocks and slights, this being just the latest. What a shame from a once great company that has been responsible for some of the best innovations in the business.
Haha, no kidding. They just happened to have a licensing dispute with Netflix about streaming specifically to the xbox a week before NXE comes out. Uh...

The problem for sony is they've told so many lies and sold so much corporate deception, that they are now starting to believe their own BS.
