Apple: PSP and DS not cool anymore, overpriced too.

[darkado]

Prochitajte obavezno, iskrivio sam se.

The claws are out -- and from Apple, wouldn't you know! Phil Schiller, Apple's marketing VP main man, is calling out the PSP and the DS, handheld gadgets from Sony and Nintendo respectively, for being overpriced. And not being cool anymore. Kssshhh...

"When [DS and PSP] came out, they seemed so cool," said Shiller. "But once you play a game on the iPod touch, you think 'hey, these things aren't so cool any more..."

Wearing out that coolness factor isn't the only problem. "We're talking about 25, 30, 40 dollars a title. These kids can't afford those titles. Worse isn't the price, it's the buying experience." As opposed to their games -- all 21,178 of them, not to mention the up and coming hot titles such as Assassin's Creed II from Ubisoft and the music game Riddim Ribbon.

Apple's definitely making it known they're putting themselves in the handhelds race now, flat and square. Well, Sony and Ninty? What say you? With these points raised by Apple, making a comeback with "It's not really in the same league as us, hence it's not a competition" won't suffice, methinks.

NOT!
Sve sve ali porediti igre je neumesno u najmanju ruku...

cela izjava je takva da postoje samo dva objashnjenja:

1. zezao se

2. smeshne cigare

sad ozbiljno, dao je ljudima toliko materijala da mu se smeju da je strashno.


prvo i osnovno, touch kontrole odgovaraju samo puzzle, logichkim, p&c igrama i jedinoj vrsti koja mi se svidela dok sam imao iphone...tower defense igrama.
svi ostali zhanrovi imaju uglavnom uzhasne kontrole.

e sad, posle toga je rekao da imaju 21k+ igara shto je jako smeshna izjava poshto se ja nikako ne bih ponosio sa toliko showelware (da ne kazhem crapware) igara. naravno ima izuzetaka ali chisto sumnjam da je i 50 igara u pitanju. da ne pominjem da ima dosta dobrih igara koje su chisti plagijati, deshavalo im se i da ih povlache sa app store-a.

najbolje za kraj. apple nekom kazhe da je njegov proizvod overpriced...
