I remember it being ridiculously over priced like around $700 at least.

It was the same thing here in the UK too, the PS2 and PS3 were very similar in price so I don't get it when people complain about the price.

Xbox launched very expensive, the gamecube was a lot cheaper than both the xbox and ps2 as well.

Soon the xbox 360 will be the cheapest console in the UK, theyr dropping the price to around 15% less than the Wii with the core model from what I've heard.

This hot competition is great prices are falling to the ground with fantastic games everywhere.

Its a shame you need to a HDTV though, it kind of defeats the purpose of a cheap console when you have to pay a fortune to enjoy it.

its not unwanted, its that its tooooo pricy. u can see 10 ps3's in a store while all the wiis are sold out. ps3 vs.wii, wii would win. wii sold more than the 360 and ps3 combined.

If PS3 was maybe $500 or $400 for the Premium then I would buy it but mainly for Gran Turismo 5.

I don't think so.

I mean over in the States, HDTVs are becoming pretty commonplace. Also where did you get that you had to have a HDTV?

Nowadays I don't really see folks buying new SD sets any more.

Why should they? HDTV big screens are the price of SD big screens 6 years ago.

Also after watching HDTV, SD sets totally suck ass anyway.

I'll pick one up in a year or so once the prices have come down

HDTVs have fallen quite dramtically in price now though (some decent 32" sets are cheaper than the PS3...), I'm getting one for the Wii I'm getting because I think I'll need the big screen to fit multiple players in front of. And my PS2 looks shit on my 20" standard TV.

360 or ps3 ?
