Razer doesn't make PS3 peripherals because its CEO doesn't play it

4.6
Those looking to buy gaming accessories from third-party manufacturer Razer have three platforms they can shop for: PC, Mac and Xbox 360. Razer CEO Min-Liang Tan recently took to Twitter to explain why the company doesn't make accessories for PS3, saying that "one of the big reasons why we don't make Playstation accessories is because I don't really spend time with mine."

When asked if the company would consider producing accessories for PlayStation 4, Tan said Razer will "definitely be looking at PS4 but no promises there," and that the company has "high hopes" for the system, given what it saw at E3.

Cyimking lol what a legit answer. Dumb or not he is telling the truth.. You're not going to make apps for blackberry phones if you do not use a blackberry.


It's really not a viable excuse, at the end of the day they're a business and are supposed to produce for their customers not themselves, it's really not logical.

Gossip LMFAO nice reason. Fair. If I was a company and I didnt play/like a system I wouldnt make anything for it. Fairplay


Yeah, same here. I don't see the point of making anything for them, if you don't like them.

MI5 pretty stupid logic for the CEO of a company...


It kinda is, but I guess he feels there wouldn't be much sales because he doesn't like it

M1lkyduds This idiot is the CEO?


Yeah he is. And he is making millions while you call him an idiot on the internet. So who do you think is the mad one in this situation? Anyway I find this pretty funny but I don't use the headphones anyway so I don't care who they make them for.


Sure he is making millions but he could potentially be making a lot more if he "played ps3". I wouldn't want someone like this running my company.
I would. When people like this are running a company they tend to have some freedom...

-TwilightSparkle- I actually really like this, he can't make a controller if he doesn't have hands on expierence with it, right?


He doesn't make the controller...actual gamers test them out.

It's not that as I'm sure he has used a PS3 controller in the past but he stated that he doesn't spend time on the console or in other words, he doesn't like PlayStation.

It's more money for him. I don't see why he wouldn't do it.
