Mainichi: What are you feelings on Microsoft and Nintendo?
Okamoto-san: The PlayStation 2 and Xbox are closely related in terms of performance, so we\'re most conscious of Microsoft and their plans. Considering the level of completion of software for GameCube however, we\'re watching both Nintendo and Microsoft closely. We want the PlayStation 2 to be the center of entertainment in the living room, whereas the Xbox feels like an extension of the PC.
One reason I admire the XBOX team is that they don\'t just go around trash-talking about the other developers, they just let the XBOX hardware and software do the trash-talking, and believe me, that\'s some harsh words my friend. This is exactly the reason ive second thoughted buying a PS2, for that reason alone, and the fact that it is underpowered, and Xbox has better games (That I like), They should really get off their high horse and stop thinking they are the gods of gaming, just because they won the last generation hands down, they are going to have to work their asses off this time around, because Microsoft and Nintendo is going to have some kickass marketing, Hardware and Games where Sony only had like one commercial, PS9, I mean WTF, I could have thought of that.
Also sony says Closely related in performance what a pile of bullShlt!!!
