Sony slashes PS3 price tag by $100 - CNN.com
Now all they gotta do is get some good games and I'm sold. I think this move is riding on the 'Ring of Death' difficulties from the XBOX360.Quote:

making it cheaper its not changing the fact that the console sucks...Sucks a lot...:D
sony also announced a 80Gb version, wondering why ppl should buy that cuz theres no good thing to download from sony
Nothing wrong with the console, so far the games just aren't much good.
360 made it interesting for me because a lot of great titles were 30 euro and less, the PS3 still has most games listed for 60-65 euro, which i'm just not willing to spend.
I'll probably own a PS3 when there is a wide collection for 30 euro and under games, and the PS3 dropped to like 400 euro.
But that's completely useless, that's what you got a PC for.
yeah ill do that if i want too hook w/ linux or backup my anime/music collection
It will definetly be interesting to see where Sony stands 1 year from now, i know it's pretty much impossible for them to do what they did with the PS2, it just beat the crap out of the Xbox and Gamecube, but the Wii has something new, and the 360 got a big headstart (unlike with the Xbox) and some great titles. If Sony can drop the price enough, and get some great titles, then they can catch up on the 360, but it can never truely beat it, it's just impossible, there are to many 360 users, and it keeps growing at a steady rate.
For now the only SOny products that i will be using are the PSP and PS2, i will buy the PS3 no earlier then a year, and probably not even then.
once ff13 comes out, everything will change
What is ff13, And I Hope to get the 80Gb Version this summer, Its good that they cut down the price for the 60Gb by $100$ And made the 80Gb $600$, Seems fair enough for people to buy now
Still, $500 for a game system is ridiculous. You use it for a couple of years until the PS4 comes out which will cost something like $1,200. Stupid.
Maybe, you gotta remember that the person that created Final Fantasy left Square Enix 2 years ago and started his own company called Mistwalker, which is making 2 exclusive RPG's for the Xbox 360, one being Blue Dragon, which really can be seen as the spiritual successor.
So while Sony gets the title Final Fantasy, Microsoft is getting the game.
Besides while Final Fantasy is a big and important title, it won't bring PS3 just back in the race, it needs a lot more for that, and it has lost a great deal of titles, and games like GTA they always had deals to have it released first on the PS2, now GTA 4 will come out on the same day on the 360, and Microsoft paid a lot of money to get exclusive content (like extra storylines and stuff)
Microsoft is paying a lot of money for exclusives, and they're getting it, all the while Sony is losing them.
They Should At Least Put The Price Down To 400, Then People Will Buy It.
microsoft has rumors that they will cut the price of 360s and the elite..yeah!!! maybe i would buy a elite this year
Microsoft announced that the Elite price will drop in $50. An thats all baby.
BTW, Sony needs just 2 games to make great sales.
FF13 and MGS4 (Gran Turismo 5 could be also). Period.
That's nonsense, Sony needs a whole lot more then that, first of all the price of 600 dollars/euro turns off a lot of people, and then to have 2 great titles for them is not enough, that would average you 360 euro a game. Sony needs like 5 great titles for every person, obviously not everyone likes the same game, so they will need like 8 top titles.
I know, is just an example. What I meaned is that Sony just need a few games to make greats sales. Not a whole list of titles.
I would rather crush my penis with a hammer than buy a PS3 atm. Its just an expensive paperweight. Wait a year then buy it i say that is if they dont go bankrupt :(
It's a good dust collector
Does PS3's have alot of problems like PS2's do? I haven't seen many complaints about it yet.
My first 2 PS2's died in a month. The first one wouldn't even read blue back disk...brand new. My third one lasted a little over a year, with having to take it apart and clean the lens at least once a month. Now it barely plays anything, load times are very slow, so i eventually had enough, and kick the shit out of it, and threw it in the back bedroom of my house :P Never have to look at it again.
I just wander if PS3's are junk too.
I have a PS3, its awesome, you can connect it with your psp and stuff o:
And i like some of the games PS3's have
