Look, most of us want a PS3 price cut because we think it’s too expensive when compared to its competition. But others may want a lower price so that Sony can see even greater success with its flagship system, which may equal more successes for their companies.
Take EA’s Redwood Shores (Dead Space, baby!) general manager Glen Schofield. He doesn’t come right out and say it, but you know what he’s getting at.
“I’m really not sure what’s going on with Sony,” he said. “They’ve been such a great, great partner and PlayStation 2 being such a great machine that, God, I hope they get out of this and they figure it out and they’re around for a long time.”
We do too, Glen. When I look at my game shelves and see the huge collection of really great PS2 and PS1 software, it gives me hope for a similar collection of PS3 games.
Schofield adds that: “You know, I can’t tell them what to do. I don’t know their finances.”
Well, I know some of their finances, and things aren’t great. Maybe a price drop would help?
