wow...you really are a hater
SCEA bland? Try smart and creative. The knew that with the success of the Playstation, a lot of casual gamers would instantly recognize the name 'Playstation 2' as opposed to something different. I know people who, when asked about 'Gamecube', have to ask which company makes the system. Also, SCEA has easily the best, most creative, and funniest damned advertisements (especially commercials...I just saw the Santa Claus one the other day...you should check out the SOCOM, Ratchet and Clank and ATV Offroad Fury ones...as well as oldies like the original Crash Bandicoot commercials) in the industry.
and how is the name 'Playstation' more generic than 'Nintendo Entertainment System' or 'Super Nintendo Entertainment System' or 'Nintendo 64' or even 'Gamecube'?
Bah, forget it...I can tell when it comes to gaming, you're not one to be part of any kind of intelligent conversation.
