i guess its a good thing i dont plan on getting one until until about half way into its life span ;)

im waiting for halo 3 to come out before getting a xbox360. plus there are supposedly a couple of massive rpg trioglies getting worked on. one from the makers of the KoTR games :D

If he does decide to go with $800 Kutagari may be in for a rude awakening. Yes people are stupid, but a lot of them aren't rich and stupid.

Honestly though, I think he's doing exactly what he does best. He's playing people like a deck of cards. He's going to let the media run rampant with these stories about how it will cost $10,000 and do your laundry while it cooks you breakfast. Then when he says it's going to cost $300 the stores won't be able to keep them in stock.

I can't see me owning a PS3 until at least a year after it's out, so I can't say I'm too fussed about the launch price. $800 seems crazy-high, though.

Have to say, I think Red Frog's probably spot on about the whole thing. God bless the marketing man, eh? :lol: :doh:
