I am very botherd by CNBC... see my letter to sony!

I am very disturbed by a recent article by CNBC... not at your corporation, but at NBC themselves.
I am referring to the article located at
http://www.cnbc.com/news/news/conewsstory.html?sym=ATVI&id=N05429358

They have put your corporation and your Playstation 2 game console in a very false light. While "conveniently" commenting on the x-box and how its so superior. I do know however, that Microsoft corp. has very strong ties with NBC, and this is not the first time NBC has posted an article about your system that puts it in a false light. They forget, almost purposely to mention the recent sales of the Playstation 2 game Onimusha Warlords which has sold over 500,000 copies in Japan as rebuttal view on the subject. I am very deeply concerned with the recent actions by NBC, and a possible link with Microsoft Corp. writing "false light" news stories being posted on their website. I hope you investigate these occurrences.

Thank you very much for your time and reading my concerned e-mail.

What do you think
check out these bias quotes from the article
"SONY\'S LOSS COULD BE MICROSOFT\'S GAIN"
"Opens the door for Microsoft"
"Micrsoft courting developers"
and not to mention... NINTENDO WAS ONLY MENTIONED TWICE!
something is going on here, and it REALLY bothers me
and this is not the first time either,
I have yet to see bad news about the x-box on the site...

From what I learned what they are doing is putting sony under false light, and its illegal.

Nice letter Chrono. Good job.

I did not saying I was leaving,
I said I was not posting much
I made major progress today on programming.. cause I did not post much

Ok fine, just don\'t leave.
We need you here.

i think its great you sent a letter, i hate stupid crap like that it pisses me off, it good people like you are here to keep them in check

yup.

Why are you guys worried what NBC, CNN, Fox, ABC, NYTimes, Newsweek, Time, or any other media outlet says? They have never covered anything with gaming properly, and they won\'t start anytime soon. Videogame violence, need I say more?

out of curiosity could you point out these false accusations in this article,

Now that I think about it Chrono, those \'biased\' statements are all true. Nintendo already has their own market set, MS has much to gain from any PS2 problem. And MS is activly persuing developers. And there\'s no negetive news cause *its not out*. I didn\'t read the whole article, but It didn\'t seem that off the mark. I agree with ddaryl, what exactly is false?

You don\'t know much about the media industry do ya?
I\'ll double check with my MEDIA TEACHER tomorow... and see what she says.

Your \'media teacher\'? Yea, that\'ll put us in line. Just don\'t try to explain things from your point of view to her, let her take the article for what its worth on its own.

The article is just a differnt view on Sony\'s PS2. The ride has been bumpy no denying this, and what was said was true just from a negative view point.

Sony is goliath and will get the most attention, lots of people want to see Goliath fall, thats just the way it goes

who is "lots of people"?

Oh there are lots of people who want SOny and the PS2 toi crash and burn


There are more that want Xbox to crash and burn though, but no denying there is a strong hatred for the PS2 by quite a few

"Electronic Arts President John Riccitiello criticized Sony in a recent interview for not doing enough enough to support the PlayStation 2 with strong games of its own, calling Sony\'s driving game Ridge Racer "relatively mediocre."

"There weren\'t enough software titles to create a market," he told Reuters.

BAD BLOOD WITH GAMERS

Those slower PlayStation 2 sales have hurt profits for game developers who have staked a lot on Sony\'s success."

Seems as if someone is deliberately misquoting. EA was disappointed about not enough hardware from Sony not  software. Souldn\'t it say *lower* than expected not *slower*

Yeah, nothing to go to court about. Yet. The whole picture (MS+NBC pro xbox) is blatently underhanded though.
