PS3 Price?

[Gareth]

You should have told him that Mrs Nugget won't even let you buy any games to go with your new 360, so what are the chances of her letting you pre-order a PS3?

[Aragorn]

I wonder if there will be the same ebay scrum for PS3's as with 360's last year. If you're lucky the profit on a PS3 might pay for the 360

Had two 360's die on me, so not impressed, hoping better things with the new PS3, but meanwhile, saving up for the new Sony Bravia X-series, as it's the only one with full HD 1080 "1920x1080p panel, displays up to 6.2 MegaPixel resolution".

Tickles me with people paying these prices, give it a few month and they will be in every shop for £199 with a game pad and memory card

I don't see why, i've had 500 hours of entertainment out of mine and will prolly have another 500 (if not more) before it drops in price. They are talking post Xmas before they drop the price now. 8p an hour entertainment that makes it, i'm quite happy paying early. I wouldn't have played any of the last gen games that much.

I think I will get a 360. I will wait for them to go down in price first and get all the stuff I want for it such as wireless remotes, media control, god scart cable, xbox live gold and a wireless adapter.

Hopefully the 360 will be improved by then as well as all bugs and fixed. I might wait for the models with the 65mm chip

Wonder if people will realise (not!) that the quality of PS3 games are just the same as Xbox360 games but actually pay Sony £200 more for the privilage with their new console!!!

Just get a 360 now. There is nothing wrong with them, and for the price you pay its worth it. Remember you can get the core pack or the premium that has the HDD, wireless controller, headset and also HD componant cable. Well worth the £280.

I agree, it's the same as buying a PC, there's always something coming out worth waiting for, just buy one and be done with it i say.

Everything goes wrong at some point. When I got my first PS2 it had to be replaced 4 times in the first 6 months as the system kept failing.

[Druchii]

I have the original Xbox, version 1. Never had a problem, at all. They got something right with it

[kronas]

according to DFC intelligence in the US, it could be possible that consumers are put off by the PS3 price tag and opt for the $200 cheaper 360, remember GTA is no longer exclusive to PS3!

its a major seller.

Although i've never had any intention of buying a PS3 as i'm 100% happy with my 360, the fact that it now doesn't have a vibrating controller would of put me off completely, if i had planned to get one.
