I honestly think the ps3s death is greatly exaggerated. To me, there seems to be a 'vibe' for posting negatively on most websites about anything anti-sony/ps3. they're like microsoft circa late 90's, early naugties...people hate them 'coz thats what everyone else seems to do'... If you try and look at sony as well as the PS3 from a fair and unbiased point of view, you will see that it's definitely not this terrible system at all. Is it the best? who knows, but it most certainly isn't a door stop. Hell, it's the cheapest blu ray player available at the moment! Forget the other functionality it provides.
