That\'s overpriced. And the fact that they might still be selling at a loss is retarded. For their sake I hope the manufacturing costs plummet.

I won\'t buy one for $400.

hmm, $400 isn\'t that expensive when you consider they added the Blu Ray support.

Stand a lone Blu Ray players expected to sell higher than that, as little as $1,000 and over...

Think the general consumer cares? General consumer is happy with DVD, so Blu Ray means nothing to them. The price is overpriced for a console. It\'s that simple.

What???

DC launched at $199...

You mean Saturn?
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

In 1995, the PSX sold for $299. It\'ll be over 10 years later for the PS3 launch and they\'re selling it for $399.

I\'m buying it. I\'ll be elite one day. You watch.

doh, meant saturn
i remember there was only a soccer game and one other title at launch

regardless, 399$ is a steal.  
still wish the industry would go back to having a pack in game.

I believe many videogame console owners care.  Look at the ps2 at launch time, buyers get one not only for ps2 games, they get one because it can also play DVD, and backward compatible with PSOne.  It was a smart move for PS2 to include DVD playback.  They are the first console to include that because Dreamcast doesn\'t have it, neither does Gamecube which comes out later.

if ps3 is selling at $400, I am very sure that it will sells like hotcake.  Why bother buying a stand a lone Blu Ray player that cost around $1,000 when you can get ps3 for $400.

I don\'t mind paying that much at launch. I usually spend 2-3 times that on games and accessories anyway.

i\'ll definatly be buying for that fuckin price, if anyone complains they\'re just broke biatches. I was expecting 6-700 hundred range so this is a great save.

I don\'t know how it can cost $400 when the new Xbox is $300. With that price difference the PS3 should be a lot more powerful how is that possible
