RE: E3 Sony's conferenceAs with the Microsoft report written yesterday this report is again a well written account of the Sony conference at E3. In a way these conferences have shown how alike the two systems are. Any worth a read.[ Guru ] [ Level 18 ] [ Rank: 33 ]Permalink | Reply1 bids

RE: Capcom expects further PS3 price dropCapcom expects Sony to cut the price of the PlayStation 3 again before the end of the year. Speaking to Reuters, the Japanese publisher's chief financial officer said he expected PS2 users to adopt the PS3 gradually. "The number of PS2 users is still growing and a shift to the PS3 is on the back burner," commented Kazuhiko Abe. "But, the price has been cut once and it is likely to be cut again towards the end of the year." "I expect the [PS3's] installed base to grow gradually," he said. Sony cut the price of the 60GB PS3 to USD 499 earlier this week, with SCEA boss Jack Tretton claiming double sales figures for the home console off the back of the move.

RE: Sonys Tretton criticizes approach of rival platform holdersSays SCEA won't "bribe" developers for exclusivity SCEA boss Jack Tretton has criticised what he described as the "different approach" of rival platform holders, stating that Sony won't "bribe" developers to make PS3 exclusives. Speaking in the latest issue of PSM magazine Tretton said, "Microsoft is too dependent upon the third-party community, and Nintendo is too dependent upon first-party. We like to feel that we got a pretty good mix. "We have a very different approach to exclusives than some of our competitors," he continued.

RE: Kutaragi officially retires from SonyWe've known about it for months but today it becomes official -- Ken Kutaragi, the father of the PlayStation, is stepping down as chairman and chief executive of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. He will still have an advisory post at the gaming unit but his days of crazy press statements as one of the public faces of Sony are over.

You're right...I was summarizing the first paragraph in the AP story and didn't read it clearly enough to give a proper summary:
First paragraph: Blockbuster Inc. will rent high-definition DVDs only in the Blu-ray format in 1,450 stores when it expands its high-def offerings next month, dealing a major blow to the rival HD DVD format.
I missed this part:
Blockbuster will continue to rent HD DVD titles in the original 250 locations and online, the Dallas-based company said.
So...wasn't trying to 'spin' (I don't own a PS3 or X360 or Wii) just skimmed the article too fast.
Cheers.

welshbloke posted on Sony Corporation (SNE) at 7:42AM PST on June 18, 2007. RE: Blockbuster Blu-ray ONLY. No HD DVDInteresting but the news I heard is they were reducing the number of stores that would hold both HD DVD and Blu ray. The online rental service would could continue offering both and only 250 out of the 1700 stores would carry HD DVD titles.
Not quite "Exclusive" and a good example of spin.
