30 Mar 2006 06:02 | Lost Alley | Xbox 360 | Playstation 3 | Revolution Xbox360News.com | Link to this article Forrester Research has published a new report that examines the trust that American households place in PC and consumer electronics (CE) brands, including the brands of Microsoft, Nintendo and Sony (the red dots, above). The results may be surprising to gamers. In Forrester's analysis, Sony's brand garnered the highest marks of the three companies (Sony also ranked 3rd out of 22 companies), earning an average of A plus. Of the companies surveyed, only Bose and Dell sport an A plus. Meanwhile, Microsoft's brand earned an overall grade of C (placing Microsoft at 20 out of 22), dragged down by low brand trust. Nintendo's brand earned a B, but was pulled towards the bottom of the ranking (17th place out of 22) by low brand potential and low brand adoption.

Everyone knows that Windows is a bag of bollocks, and that's what people have probably voted against. Nintendo haven't got the mass market that Sony have. So of course Sony are going to come out on top! Pointless! Unregistered - migs 03.30.2006 08:10 I don't trust sony after my experiences. Most people won't trust microsoft because of windows issues , but you have to think that windows has to be compatable with so many differnet products and software and people are always trying to manipulate it with viruses etc, It must be a huge task for microsoft to take on and I think they deserve a litle more credit, anyhow I would like to see sony try and do it. Unregistered - DJ 03.30.2006 10:03 I have a one-word reply to this survey. Oblivion :) FamoAmo 03.30.2006 10:08 Sony's product's suck besides their TV'S!! The PS2 was a huge POS. I had 2 break and sold my 3rd to get the xbox. Sony is probably hiring these chump companies to publish this crap!! Should take this article off this site!!! Unregistered - 03.30.2006 11:01 The results aren't that surprising. It's trendy to hate MS. Also MS is so big and powerful that when something goes wrong, it's huge press. The recent worms on the Mac OS are barely mentioned in the tabloids. Barely anybody is even aware of the Sony rootkit fiasco (installing software without permission, and circumventing people's firewalls, COME ON!?). Meanwhile every worm and bug on Windows XP seems to make it's way to primetime CNN. Unregistered - HBK 03.30.2006 11:19 Sony is an old boring brand to me, it has to go. Time for new comers to come in and kick them in the nuts. FreeMonk 03.30.2006 11:59 I wouldn't even consider buying anything Sony other than a PS3. Sound equipment, TV's, MP3 Players etc are all crap. I'd rather go with a dedicated supplier like Panasonic, Pioneer or a smaller company like Mordaunt Short or Bose because they make products that last and are of quality, not just shipped off the line as fast as they can to make a quick buck. Sony are good at one thing, Consoles, and they are not even that good. Unregistered - saphiron 03.30.2006 12:19 THe new Sony TV's are not crap.. they cost alot and you get less " for your money, but the picture quality is very good... Unregistered - df 03.30.2006 15:50 For some reason everytime i buy something sony is messes up so i never buy Sony EVER! Samsung, philip ect..

It was flawless they had my shipping box here the next day and I had my new until 4 days later. Quick and painless. They really delivered on the customer care. Very nice and friendly. I rate their customer care 2nd to none. Im very proud to be a Xbox and 360 owner. As both systems I find to be very rewarding. Also why is it that 360 gets bad press when something goes wrong? what about when Playstation has stuff wrong? Unregistered - 007 03.31.2006 20:54 What is xbox ? is that uh-uh oh ya!, is that american no! i know, xbox go in air plan?.Who wan't buy "we got tv,game,stero,under wear,and cars,buy sony it verwy good! Unregistered - migs 04.01.2006 08:40 How many upside down playstations have you seen? I've seen a fair few, I never had to do that with any of my other game consoles. All i can say to number 18 is NO i will not buy sony it is not very good, my experiences have taught me that, The sony speakers in my car are utter crap!, our samsung tv has a better picture than our freinds sony tv of comparable features,my pioneer surround system sounds better than the sonys i heard and is easier to use + when i did consider buying a sony whlist looking on the net I was put of by the amount of people that had problems with theirs, I could carry on with more examples of why I personally dislike the brand but i think i've made my point. Unregistered - habren 04.02.2006 04:54 Sonys like AOL,its such a big company ,you can't see around it even if somethimg is better.With sonys old growth blocking the light and saplings like ms will have trouble growing.
