Here it is summarized --
With the launch of the PS3 and Wii 3 months behind us, we've taken a look back at those launches and as well launch of the 360 and tried to come up with a set of new rules for the next major console launch.
1. Thou shall not force us to kill for your system, thou shall have at least 600,000 units at launch
2. Thou shall have enough accessories to go with the system
3. Honor the father and the mother, do not charge more than $350 for thy next system
4. You shall not bear false witness against your system specs
5. You shall not steal extra money from us by not including key components in the box
6. Remember a gaming day and keep it holy (release new online content on a consistent basis)
7. You shall not covet your neighbors titles, make sure you have at least three solid first party launch titles
8. You shall not commit gaming adultery, backwards compatibility should be an all or nothing deal
9. Thou should have good tech support and a solid replacement policy in place for defective units
10. Future launches will launch with one and only one SKU

lol this is pretty funny but it is so true
A new moses is born! Halleluyah! Peace on earth. lol
If only companies would abide by those rules :-/
The lack of quality PS3 games is giving Sony a really hard start. It doesn't help when the 360 is bring out hits left right and center.

The only way to get this to really work is to actually go on strike to let them know we wont drop to their standards, or should I say raise to their standards. I mean really...who wants to pay 600 dollars for a unit that doesnt work that great anyways. I have just as much fun on the old playstation that only cost me 150 bucks...at the time. I agree they should never release anything if they dont have enough...what a bunch of idiots.
I thought about maybe getting a bill together for congress to pass that game manufacturers cannot by law release a console unless they have one million consoles at launch. People getting killed or ripped off....mugged...it's ridiculous....my two.
