I think the PS3 will have the same price as the PS2 when it was launched.Source http://www.gamespot.com/news/2005/05/24/news_6126410.html
theyre not gonna make it overpriced caus the carriers always loose money on the consoles, its the games they get the serious cash from.
Im not cocerned about the price right now I usally wait till the price drops, hey if its $350 or less ill get it.
I laugh at the people who say that PS3 will be around $450-$500AUS. The PS2 cost around $800-$900AUS when it was released, and so far all signs point to the PS3 being much more expensive. Alot of companies havnt even shown any support for blue ray and alot of companies are turning to the 360 because the games are much easyer to design. I used to love playstation. But then they came out with the peice of crap PS2. Saying it will have toy story graphics and all. What a load of crap. And sony where lying about how the trailers at E3 where game play when they wernt. I absolutly hate playstation now. Iv turned to the xbox which has just as good games if not better and the best online service. All the sony fan boys should just realise what a piece of crap playstation is and make the change.
yes, let's force our opinions on others as facts, as we all know we're always right and that's always the truth; it couldn't possibly be one of those things where each machine has it's own pros and cons and isn't simply the best at everything...hell no. we're so close to that fascist state. hitler and stalin must be so proud of us!
Everyone the PS3 sucks lets just face it. The XBOX360 is going to run Sony out of business the only good product Sony makes is there T.V.'s. Well there computers are ok but there to dawm expensive. I could go onto a dell websight and buy the exact same thing a few hundred bucks less. SONY is only scaming all of your money away! come on who wants to play 7 people on the same T.V. I can barely play when 2 people are on the T.V. let alone 4 Then let's not miss the part about how it's going to need 7 controllers ok theres $350 DAWM thats only for controllers HELL you could buy a 15" HDTV for that much and it's a widescreen. Just buy the XBOX360 and we will all be safe! Sincerly THE HALOHOR
and then we have no competition and the market goes kaplunk...and the consumer loses even more than he/she is now.
no! without competition in business, no progress is ever made, as there is no incentive for R&D. the quality of the product suffers while the price skyrockets, taking the consumer for all they're worth, as they have not other choice but to buy that product or have nothing. that's the reason we had so many anti-monopoly laws here in the US come into existence back in the early 20th century. that's why Microsoft has to split into 2 companies a few years ago. they got too big. they're still too big and have a huge share of the market. haven't you noticed how expensive their products are in the fields they have total control over? or how shoddy those products are?
and that's why it's so important for the consumer to support diversity and competition in business...many haven't in recent years, and thusly the product quality and prices have been inversely proportional, with a negative result for the consumer. it blows
Yup very true. You know I'm starting to notice a trend. Lots of XBox 360 supporters are flaming the PS3 but PS3 supporters aren't saying much. Let's not be arrogant here. Outright flaming is a bad thing. Should be the Eleventh Commandment. PS3 will no doubt be expensive but more worth it than the XBox 360. Because of..... - Better graphics - More storage - Wider variety of games - More original games But XBox 360 has also some advantages over PS3 - Cheaper - XBox live - More and better FPS which is good in America but not so good in Japan where they have to sell lots of XBox 360s to become number one.
Yup. That's why XBox 360 will probably still be second to the PS3 because those things don't really excite Japanese gamers. The original XBox had the same problem. Microsoft didn't bring in enough Japanese developers and Japanese games.
