PS3 "first and foremost" a games console

Sony boss Kaz Hirai believes he has "repositioned the PlayStation 3 as being first and foremost a videogames console".

Speaking on ThreeSpeech, he claims the move away from being a one-size fits all media hub under previous boss Ken Kutaragi has "cleared up a lot of confusion in everybody's minds".

I agree... I guess. I mean i don't have a reason to doubt it but, still not sure for some reason. it's definatly on the right track though.

I never had any doubt.

It had a shaky start but I wasn't paying any attention too it because I was playing my ps2.

it does a lot of cool stuff as an extra but Sony isn't stupid; they know the Playstation brand is synomomous with quality gaming. The PS3 may have launched with a crazy price BUT the features that came standard with every PS3 make it worth it. ANd now that the price has come down to a reasonable point I think the majority of people are going to pick up a PS3 and be blown away by what the system can do. PS2 was my first DVD player. I didn't even play games on it for a good long while. Maybe it comes with being a gamer over the age of 16 that gives me patience. I knew Sony would deliver and that, in the long term, I'd be happy with a PS3 as a gaming console first and as an entertainment hub second.

The others lack innovation and the weetoy and xbug 180 gaming feel dead.

Sony PS the best the gaming world has to offer.
