  1) Unproven hardware which takes time to get accustom to?
  2) unbalanced system?
  3) underpowered compared to xbox 360?
  4) high price?
  
  havent we seen all this with the PS2 already yet?

  actually, it's supposed to be heck of a lot more powerful than the xbox360
  
  HOWEVER, the same mistakes are being made with the PS2.. that is, area coding, killing their distributers (see them kill that HK lot Lik Shen), being anal about their stuff which pisses off the publishers...
  
  sony as usual, make good stuff, but bad decisions
  
  sony just lost a crapload of money because they made really really good high-end stuff which no one will use because it's way too high-end, and few can afford.. i think that whole lot of engineers and managers got fired or something
