He doesn't mention the Blu-Ray factor, which I'm coming to believe is the main source of the PS3 silence and problems. My recent thoughts on Sony, the PS3 and Blu-Ray are here, here, here, here and here.
Josh Korr played his first video game at circa age 4 on the Commodore
Vic 20. He soon moved on to the more sophisticated Commodore 64, home
of classics like Impossible Mission (still impossible to finish on the
Commodore plug-and-play joystick he bought from QVC last year) and
Jumpman. That had to do for awhile -- his mom wasn't thrilled about
the whole video game thing -- until uncle Charley came to the rescue
with a Hanukkah Nintendo. His mom was right though: $50 was too much
to spend on Super Mario Bros. 3.
Josh is still a gamer, but a wary one. A copy editor in real life, he
has been writing movie and music reviews and pop culture
essay-type-things since college (for the Valley News in West Lebanon,
N.H., and for the Times/tbt*) and is trying to bring the same critical
approach to video games.
