Jack Tretton Describes Each Console As A Meal

Home : News : News Story

360 is an "unreliable cook", Wii a "lollipop" and PS3 "The best on the menu", according to the Sony executive.


In a recent interview, GamePro expressed their dislike for the Wii, and then asked Jack Tretton,

"How would you describe each current game console if you had to describe it as a meal or food?"

Tretton replied,

"I think the PS3 is the Surf 'n Turf. You want the lobster and steak and you're going to give yourself the treat of getting the best thing on the menu. The PS2 is your favorite burger restaurant -- you go there for comfort food and it's just always good and is a good value.

[As for the other two consoles], one [Wii] is a lollipop, and I'm too old for lollipops. The other one [Xbox 360] I get sick from once in a while because the cook isn't always reliable."
