    I games for ps2 already cost more than 50€ sometimes, I'm sure that some will achieve the 100€! I'm starting to think that I'm gonna start playing games at the computer

    Ok,now it's official.They completely lost their minds!!
    Seeing as how prices here in Europe are even more than in US (a game here costs 50-60 euros which is like 70-80 USD) i can guarantee that the sales here will be a disaster.
    I'm curious to see how this goes...

    What, so now we're not getting giant enemy crabs?
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    Not a good idea for Sony. Triple digits are very scary. Jack up the price of the system by 60$ and down the price of games by at least 20$. That will make things much more reasonable. I'm surprised how cheap games are now. Mind you I only buy second hand, or I wait long enough that it's dirt cheap.

    If this ends up true, I guess I won't be playing MGS4 untill 2010.

    I sincerely doubt this is true, but if it is, I want to know who hit the entire company leadership of Sony about the head really hard.

    The fact that the system itself is currently slated to be marketed at DOUBLE the price and less than HALF the supply/number of units compared to the Wii... I'll admit flat out that Sony has basically shot themselves in the collective foot, on this one. Ken Kutaragi isn't making things any better with all the overhyping and the "If the games reach $100, don't blame me." routine.

    I'm not looking to see Sony fail, but the signs just don't look good.

    Actually, $600/£425 is fair for what your getting.

    Honestly, yes it is - but a lot of people don't think that way about it. Also, with inflation, it's not actually that much more than the PS1 was over a decade ago. And regardless of how much it's really worth, if people don't think it's worth the money, they won't sell as much as they'd like.

    However, given how consistently Nintendo has smurfed up for the past decade and come up smelling of roses, I'm giving Sony some benefit of the doubt, just for the sake of balance.

    Im still against the fact that were having to buy all the extras that we may not use. If it was all additional, then I think Sony would have alot more people in its favour. Maybe they thought having an identical console with graphical tweaks wasnt going to win consumers.
