Wow, you really don\'t know anything about why its so high, do you? Get your facts straight before you start posting stupid shit.

Your fanboyism is clouting your sense of reality dude.

It\'s not about the price to me, it\'s about principal. Even if I had Bill Gates fortune 10 times over I still wouldn\'t buy a ps3 because consoles ARE NOT suposed to be that damn high. $ony will learn that. Just ask SNK who made the NEO Geo and 3DO about that.

And in principal you\'re living in the year 1996, right?

or was that the year you were born?

SNK didn\'t have 3rd party support from EVERY major developer in the industry, either.

they only had killer 1st party titles...like nintendo.

Yes, I\'m a fanboy especially since I hold loyalty to Nintendo also. Yes, because I took a shot at you, I\'m automatically a Sony fanboy. Nah, that can\'t be it but you\'re own stupidity.

Yea but even the developers are worried about the price. Ubisoft being one of them.

Who gives a shit about the price. People are still gonna buy it. People are still gonna buy developers games.

Consumers, mostly.

The price is only a minor problem IF the games prove they truly deliver substantial improvement over the competition.

Until now ; not many (or none) of the announced/revealed PS3 titles have
done this.

Unless they\'ve got some magical tricks up their sleeves, Sony\'s in for a very tough next gen console war which it might not win.

Also, the whole controversy around the PSP \'White\' ad, illustrates that Sony management might be a bit lost atm....

Like everything the price will drop, then people will buy it. You do have to notice its pretty much no longer a console, more like a portable pc. You get what you pay for...

« **Reply #39 on:** July 12, 2006, 06:27:08 AM »

When its competition is half the cost, yes, price matters. Sony has a lot of work to do to convince average joe consumer he needs a portable pc when he has one sitting on his desk and a console thats half the price with comprable graphics sitting by the TV.

« **Reply #40 on:** July 12, 2006, 07:20:37 AM »

I wouldn\'t say it\'s a portable PC. I mean, I guess you could use the harddrive... But it\'s basically a console/Blu-Ray DVD player.

Hey, will PS3 play regular DVDs?

Titan · « **Reply #41 on:** July 12, 2006, 10:30:46 AM »

It should play regular DVDs. Aren\'t some of the games gonna be on DVD or are they all gonna be on Blu-ray?

« **Reply #42 on:** July 12, 2006, 11:12:24 AM »

I\'ve heard they\'d all be Blu-Ray but that would sound like unfounded speculation to me if I didn\'t imagine Sony wanting to boost production of BR discs to get the costs down...

I dunno!

PS3 does playback dvd and cd to be backward compatible with ps2 and psone games and it does playback dvd-video too.

All PS3 games will be in Blu Ray format to make it harder to pirate games. And of course, ps3 can play blu ray videos too.

Titan · « **Reply #44 on:** July 12, 2006, 07:24:33 PM »

I would hope they play blu ray videos after all I\'m paying and what they throw into it.
