Sony exec compares consoles to food, makes us hungry

When Sony's Jack Tretton thinks of consoles, he thinks of food. And, who can blame him? Whenever we think about consoles, we think of food, as well. Maybe it's because we are rarely fed, instead left only to enjoy the delicious liquids that are injected into us intravenously to keep us from dying as we blog away in Joystiq's dungeons our basement offices. Oh, how we would like to eat!

Jack Tretton has some wild notions of what each console can offer consumers, commenting "I think the PS3 is the Surf 'n Turf, the PS2 is your favorite burger restaurant... [Wii] is a lollipop, and I'm too old for lollipops. And the [Xbox 360] I get sick from once in a while because the cook isn't always reliable." Wii is a lollipop? It certainly doesn't look like one and offers content greater than the supposed satisfaction that comes from consuming a lollipop, so we can't exactly understand the analogy. We actually find ourselves liking the analogy one commenter came up with over at Joystiq.
