    Fahey Pops Up In MSNBC Gray Market Piece

    MSNBC has an article up on stolen PS3s and the gray market crime fleshed out with quotes from Kotaku's own Michael Fahey. From the article:

    ...Demand dropped off steeply in the weeks following, with prices on eBay plunging from an average $2,367 on Nov. 16 to $724 on December 21, according to Michael Fahey, who detailed the price fluctuations in a recent post on gaming blog Kotaku.

    'The root cause of all the prospecting and violence, in my opinion, was Sony's decision to release a console when they knew full well supply was nowhere near demand," says Fahey. 'Americans stole, lied, cheated, and hurt each other for the promise of a big payoff, which in the end amounted to nothing.'

    Yup, yup. Silly humans. Brian Ashcraft
