[...] It seems the kids over at the official PlayStation forums have figured it all out. All the mainstream gaming sites, even IGN, has been paid off and is secretly working with Microsoft to keep the PlayStation 3 down. That’s right, it’s all Microsoft’s fault that Sony has a horrible reputation right now. It’s not the racist/sexist PSP ads, it’s not the countless stupid remarks from Kaz Hirai and Phil Harrison, it’s not the fact that none of the PS3 games are actually impressive and that Sony has been caught in a lie weekly since E3. It’s all a conspiracy. Find the truth here at the PlayStation boards. [...]

[...] Since Sony wonÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t comment on their offensive PSP ads (or apologize for them) this weekÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s quote will once again focus on the ads and their stupidity. For my article on this from earlier this week, click here. HereÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s a quote from Kotaku: [...]

I just updated the post with another ad I meant to include on Wednesday.

If this were shown in the US Johnny Cochran(sp probably) would rise from the grave and probably kick krazy-kens ass.

That would be pretty cool to watch actually…

I laughed when I saw it, because as much as I hate racism, it’s funny to watch sony do and say stupid stuff over and over and over. They’re like the crazy, stupid, racist neighbor. You just don’t know what goofy thing they’ll do next.

There are the other pictures that were being shown but have since been taken off of Sony’s Dutch PSP site.

I agree Mike, MS does need to stay focused on the task at hand and not try and spread themselves too thin. It can come in due time. Has anyone else heard that there are 2 other ads out there for the PSP that are just like this, but worse? I am going to see if I can find the links.

I also purchased a PSP and had it for a few weeks. I realised after a while that I was using it to surf the Internet and listen to music and not play games. I tried a few games on it and my thumb would cramp up quickly while playing with that little nub (they call that an analog stick?). So I returned my PSP and bought myself a good laptop.

Amen Caleb. I bought a PSP the day it launched and it has been absolutely worthless. There have been no games that are actually worth playing, and the thing is fragile as hell. I’d love to see MS enter the handheld arena, but not anytime soon. They need to focus their efforts on the 360 and estabilishing Live Anywhere, thus when they do launch a handheld, the sub-structure will already be established for a portable device such as that.

The PSP is all flash and no gas. That’s all there is to it. “I can’t wait for Sony to release the PS3 so I can see them crash and burn.”

lol, I can see how that could symbolize racism but cmon. I cant wait for MS to make a handheld so I can see them crash and burn. The PSP is a pretty good console. I got a DS lite and ended up selling it 15 days later.
