Look at the price and weep...
Thats so expensive for a console!

(Don't think there has been a thread about this)

I doubt wether it'll get that cheap in 3 years time no console becomes that cheap in that amount of time.
The ps2 dropped £200 over the 6 years of its life in the UK althouh the PS3 might dropper quicker because that is a big big price

Agreed... I preordered my Wii for £179? PS3 is £549? Now i aint no fanboy.. i had both a PS2 and a Gamecube.. and the only thing I hate about PS3 is the price.. but OVER 3 times the price of the Wii, makes the price of the PS3

^^^^Agreed

And I was gonna get the Ps2 but then I saw the gamecube and I was Drooling and got that instead alot cheaper

PS3 might have the most advanced technology and might be great but "money talks" and a lot of people aren't willing to spend that much money on a console

I think it's well worth the price that you pay. I'm not buying it for the power, or because I think it's better than the Wii or 360, it's because of the exclusive games and next-gen gameplay. I'm also buying the Wii because of the unique gameplay and exclusive titles.

Yay Wii and PS3!

Butttt maybe it has all this hi tech great stuff... but i personally cant afford that amount.. maybe you can.. even my parents wouldnt be able to afford it..
