I was a somewhat loyal customer to Sony because of my appreciation of the PS2, and my expectation that the PS3 would be essentially an upgraded PS2. Sure, they bungled up online games, but I was never directly affected by that, so it was mostly a nonissue to me. However, when the PS3 came, it couldn't play any of my massive game library from the PS2, it shipped with very few good games that I couldn't get on my Xbox already (it did a poor job of convincing me which platform to play on), it removed the OtherOS after it shipped and screwed with a lot of people's reasons to buy it (even the military), and it bogged down my ability to play their games with downloads of a gigabyte and sometimes more after I had already purchased the game (is why i don't play heavy rain or Uncharted 2 again: that download is unstomachable).
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
