» PLAYSTATION 3 » 2006 » EVOLUTION STUDIOS By the time the PS3 launched in late 2006, I was rather fed up with Sony. Lik Sang, my favourite import shop, had been forced into closure because of legal action over PSP imports. Sony executive Ken Kutaragi was making ridiculous statements about how people should want to work more hours to buy the PS3, and that it was too cheap anyway. Beyond that, the PS3 hype had been misleading. Remember how the E3 2005 MotorStorm trailer looked too good to be true? That’s because it was actually a VFX studio’s work. So when the game finally arrived and received some criticism, I was perfectly happy to believe it and felt like I wasn’t missing out by not playing it myself.
