We're normally used to insults, jabs, and cat fights when it comes to Sony and Nintendo talking about each other, so it's always refreshing to hear compliments instead. David Reeves, president of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, recently had some nice things to say about the company's competitor. When talking about how the industry has grown in the past year, he gives Nintendo due credit.Reeves states that, thanks to many Nintendo games (like Brain Age, for example), the video games market has expanded to include more female gamers and families. which in turn has been good for the industry. It's certainly hard to argue that Nintendo has brought in many new gamers, but it's still nice for SCEE to give Nintendo props.

Ewww. If it's a compliment, do you have to accept it? Or is it like a FedEx shipment, where you can see who it's from and refuse it?

Wow. I don't think Sony has ever had the balls to compliment Nintendo for succeeding. Nice.

this...isn't right. I want the companies to go back and huniliate each other! If this continues, what will fanboys do? Drink cups of tea I guess...
