    Oh. My. God.

    They ripped off Nintendo. THIS is what they're trying to push?

    Unbelieveable.

    Jesus. 500 and 600 dollars.

    30 gig HDD model. Or 60 gig HDD model.

    They're actually trying to copy Nintendo's controller. They put in some degree of 'motion sensing' in it.

    You've got to be kidding me.

    Well... if PS3's controller is used like the Wii-mote, that's my system for sure. It has everything.

    No, it's lame. Try and be creative on your own, Sony.

    Beyond that, at 500 and 600 dollars, it looks like I'll have to go with the 360/Wii combo for awhile.

    Unless Wii comes out at 300 or more. Then I'm just flying with the 360 for awhile.

    Meh, I don't care who's creative or not, Sony is smart to copy the Wii-mote. It's going to be really good.

    Thats the PRICE, my jaw dropped when i saw it :eek:

    $500 with a 20 gig HD, $600 with a 60 gig, release date is November 11 in Japan, November 17 in US/UK

    as for how many they'll have ready, 2mill at launch, 4 mill at the end of the year, 6 mil by March

    I loved how they all said "We're full of suprises" and they ripped off Wii's controller motion movement

    im sorry, but thats just way too much for a gaming console.

    I'm not willing to shell out $500 for a comparable console to 360.

    blu-ray or hd or wahtever..it doesnt' matter.

    I'd rather have a under-powered nintendo and a discounted 360.

    I'm suprised they decided on 500. I was thinking 399 at the max.

    good...since most of you guys cant afford the system, i probally wont have to preorder it :) alot of people payed $499 for the 360 pro/premium package...i dont see how sony's price tag is any different.

    ps3 = future. 360 = meh. wii = potential, only if they have 3rd party support.

    only difference was that neo geo was a $500-$600 gaming machine with $200 game catridges. plus snk's neo geo had little 3rd party support.

    Wow...not that I was gonna get one (ps3), but it further justifies my reasoning for buying the 360/Wii combo... What is Sony's thinking here? And nintendo is just damn smart because people will buy one or the other and then the Wii since its affordable.

    the question isn't CAN I AFFORD a 500 console. I CAN, but do I want to spend 500 on a console when I can get two for that price?


    it's nothing like sliced-bread...

    $500 is way too much!

    theres a psychological boundry that these companies cannot cross...

    i think that like is at $400

    AHHAAHHHAH!

    i'd probably wait for it to drop...

    OUCH
