this thread again…

Because the sony rep. loves me and give me free stuff.

The ps3 will cost ~500.  
this depends on how well the 360 is selling at the time.  
In the event 360 is raping the market from sony  
ps3 = 400

If 360 is doing ok  
ps3 = ~500

or it’ll cost 900 dollars because thats what the internet says…

Ps3 will be more… but the games will be in true HD…  
Example…  
Xbox- Project Gotham Racing will be 500 lines instead of the minimum HD of 720 because… They can’t get the framerate high enough using Xbox hardware.

Xbox is not $300 if you want to play your old Xbox games… it’s 400 you need to get the version w/ the HD because you have to download and run an Xbox1 emulator on it.

Do I know if the PS3 will be better, no… but I have a PS2… I love it… and right now Xbox 360 is way too expensive for me the highes level… It’s almost as much as rent…

I wont be buying either system untill they are both out, the prices come down, and I see what’s avail for them… IIRC there isn’t a whole lot of games out there right now for the 360

$500-$599 eh? any word on having games included?

one thing i’m NOT looking forward to is paying $60 or more dollars for each game. i foresee buying perfect dark, halo 3, and getting a game rental subscription…

Where are you getting this from? I haven’t seen anything and there’s nothing official until at least January.
