This is probably the finest way of showing what happens in a product development process if you leave the aesthetics designer out of the picture. End product looks like something found on a junkyard. What I don´t understand is that if blind people are the focus group of SE2 Labs, then did they install the game consoles or the blu-ray player?

It´s a joke. Right?

A 25 thousand dollar entertainment center snubbing the PS3 because it's not "user friendly"

Funny, for 1000 bucks, I could get a PS3, a wii, a bigger harddrive, the TV receiver, and do everything this 25,000 dollar machine does...

I'd like to present the same exact thing I said on the old Article:

What a staggeringly stupid waste of time and money.
Ignoring that you can get all that stuff for a much lower price, it's just plain ugly.
Just to have it laid out:
Wii-$250
Xbox 360 Elite- $450
HD-DVD Add-On- $150
iPod Dock-$20
Amps- Varies, but for the sake of this $500.
Sound Processor- $100+
Grand Total- $1470.

Where does the extra 23 grand come in?
Is that how much ugly costs these days?

Here's KirbyTheSlayer's much better Offer:

Vincente De Luca — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 13:58:47 MST

The comments seem to have lost focus at points, and turned into a fanboy war of sorts. I own a 360 and a Wii and I seriously find the PS3 interface to be cleaner and more intuitive than the other two (let me note that I do not own a PS3 either), and is probably the most user-friendly system I have played for a long time.

That aside, this is semi-ridiculous. I say semi cause that's the size of the machine and I say ridiculous because it is.

List of improvements:
PS3
Toaster
Oven
Stove (I like to eat)
Guitar
Drums
Microphone (for all that rockband'ing you'll be doing)
Bricks (To throw at the ITC One when you realize you've just bought a piece of shit)
Mortar (To build something more useful out of the bricks)
iPhone (To make you feel hip)
Zune (To make you feel like a rebel)
NES
SNES
Galaga / Ms. Pac Man

baked ham — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 12:55:07 MST

@baked ham: It's got that pesky problem of required installation for some games, and if that's what they are implying makes it non-user-friendly, well, I disagree. It doesn't effect the user-friendliness at all, in my opinion. Anybody can figure out how to play a game on it, just like all other machines. Put a disc in, if it requires installation, then it says "Hit X To Install." Hit X, it does the rest for you. Pretty simple, pretty easy, pretty friendly. My point is that it is easy to use and offers a lot of functionality and plays some great games... so why do the Wii and 360 deserve to be in there but not the PS3?

Bah. I'm not typing anything rational right now, please forgive me. It just pisses me off seeing such an ugly overpriced monstrosity of hardware shittiness and to know that people are actually buying it! Their product is ridiculously non-user friendly. You can't even access the Gamecube controller ports on the Wii. You have no convenient access to the 360 if it happens to suffer failure like many of them have. Where the hell do these pricks get off making fun of the PS3 when their own product is infinitely shittier?

@SuperMaxZero: Consider your language pardoned. To clarify what I thought was explicit in my post; the 'blades' are moronic. They take longer to navigate than the XMB, the aesthetics are horrible, they're not intuitive for non-geeks (since what interface isn't easily usable by a tech-geek?), and it's little graphical animations are unnecessary and cheesy. It's the least 'user friendly' of any console.

I wish they would overhaul it to something quicker. Or at least to something my elderly parents, or my young children can pick up and instantly work if they just want to watch a movie (like the XMB).

The best part is how limited the number of people you can "impress" with this thing actually is. Its not like a Ferrari or something most people would recognize.

I also don't understand the lack of PS3, because the one legitimate use for this thing I can think of is the ability to, while working on developing a game, put 3 or 4 different platform versions of it in this one box and rapidly switch between them to see how they look compared to each other using the same display.

Of course a developer could easily throw this same setup together in a larger and more wire-laden package, so its still somewhat baffling.

Anemone — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 12:24:05 MST

They're still missing their demographic. They need a PS3 and more importantly they need to offer a choice of gold or platinum and a name that's easy to rhyme with. The only people who can afford this are the terminally rich. Most people who are rich usually got that way for a reason (read: Not spending $25,000 when $5,000 would get you much the same and more.) Now back to why gold and platinum/a rhymable name are important? Well, the only people with lots of money who don't expect to live past 30 (so saving what money they get isn't a sensible concern) are rappers, and no self respecting rapper would even try to drop "ITC One media center" in a song.

The PS3 isn't 'user friendly'? What a stupid argument. Say what you will about it's price, game selection, and online offerings, but anyone can see how the XMB is one of the best user interfaces of any console. It's simple, effective, and intuitive. By comparison, the 360's 'blades' have all the grace and subtlety of a retard with a mallet.

And to include a blu-ray player that ISN'T a PS3 is just stupid. Better to just buy a Wii, and an HTPC (since all the best 360 games come out for PC anyway) with a blu-ray drive, and you just saved yourself about $20,000.

Have they even sold any of these things?

@feegore: much, much cheaper. But then you also wouldn't need the ridiculous amounts of cooling it probably needs, nor the hideous and over sized case.

@feegore: Where's the fun in that? Nothing says I'm richer than all of you than buying a piece of useless gadget for more than a price of a regular car then lord it over everyone else.

This machine is for people who have everything with money to burn and who don't mind spending even more money for stuff they don't really need but must have just because the can afford it. Sounds like me and a friend of mine.

Whats especially funny is it seems to have to have a separate DVD drive for the 360 and wii, I'm guessing theres probably a 3rd one for the blueray as well.

What a rediculous piece of machinery. But I guess if you have 25k to burn and need a robotic overlord to watch over your kids, this seems like a no brainer purchase.

"*~I think that I speak for everyone here when I say~*, I was really on the fence about purchasing an ITC One. But now that it's packing a Blu-ray player, it's a no-brainer purchase."

I'm pretty sure it was sarcasm, wouldnt it be a shame if that 360 Red ringed? what did they really do here though? take a bunch of stuff and just put it in a box?

@ Mark Wilson

Please tell me that was sarcasm. So hard to tell on the internets, but if that wasn't sarcasm, I'll need to go cry now.
