PS3 Fanboy

Well the CD was invented by Sony and Phillips together, it was started by a Phillips research, but they had developed together ...

and there would not be no playstation if nintendo hadn't shown intrest in the disc technology to start with!! lol

why wouldn't xbox eventually exist, that makes no sense whatsoever.

There would be no playstation if Nintendo hadn't revived the game industry in the 80's.

True, Microsoft has resigned itself to the sidelines these days, waiting for someone else to innovate so they can copy it. Everything from the Xbox to Vista to the Zune screams "me too". Shameful really.

True, although strictly on the console front they have done some innovative things in the way of bringing hard drives to consoles and pioneering the online gameplay movement on consoles. As you say though, in general (Windows, Zune, etc) there is a lot of copying on their part.

Likewise for Sony though, especially lately. The PS3 really brought nothing innovative to the table, and blu-ray is just an evolution of DVD and launched alongside another product doing virtually the exact same thing. Throughout its history though, Sony has brought forth many new innovations, and copied many things as well...as is true with most of these companies up here.

Ummm you forgot PS2 had an hdd before xbox was even out. Furthermore, putting a hdd in what is essentially a computer is not innovative no matter who did it first. Theres internal memory and memory cards which are all just basic forms of storage.

PS3 has so much innovation what are talking about. Theres the cell, it was the 1st system with hdmi (i think) and name another console that allows you to install mods for games (UT3) AND let them play with mouse and keyboard ala pc stlyle (also UT3), let alone install other operating systems. Even the heat dissipating system was pretty innovative as. The 7 spu's were also quite innovative as no other system is using a similar setup. Even down to six axis. I still sorta know what you mean though. But really we just overlook many of these little innovative things.

I second that
