Hastings has updated a blog with his ten reasons why he thinks PS3 is the one to beat in the next-gen console war. Quickly though, he points out that "Insomniac is a 100% independent development studio. Sony has neither endorsed nor authorized what I'm writing here."
He added, "I wanted to address an ongoing industry phenomenon. Specifically, the sheer volume of negative spin toward Sony from both the mainstream press and the internet community. Mere minutes after Sony announced a beautiful, ground breaking, free, community-enhancing online PS3 service, 100 internet posters were trying to argue that this was somehow a bad thing."
"Whether you love or hate Sony, if you're trying to spin Home as a bad thing I can only conclude that you're part of Microsoft's $3.2 billion viral marketing campaign."
