ABF, are you serious? Some exec was so out of touch he said that? Could you provide a link to that quote?
I'm pretty sure it was someone from Sony of Europe. There's a thread about it over at GAF somewhere.
I could look up the exact quote, but I know one of the Sony execs somewhere said it. It might make sense too -- remember that this is going to be just about the cheapest Blu-Ray player around. Of course that'll probably make it a mediocre one (like how the PS2 wasn't the greatest DVD player), but ... it'll be cheaper... so looking at it that way, there is some grounds to say that. Though of course it'd never sell on that scale with no games... especially when you consider how I'm sure he didn't just mean it as a Blu-Ray player but also as a statement about how Sony expects that in the end people will fall in line behind them like they have for two generations now regardless. I hope they're wrong. :)
Quote:So that game wasn't even Ridge Racer, it was Grand Turismo? Or, are they the same series? I've never cared enough about such racing games to memorize such things.
Ridge Racer 64 is a fun game... irritatingly hard, but fun. What's so wrong with arcade racing (not about this comment, but all the dislike the RR franchise has these days...)?
