@DamonDash yeah I'm gonna get my dad to preorder em for me. They're bound to be rare and therefore expensive in the UK at Chri$tma$. Muchos Pesos Por Roberto. And I swear, there's no sweeter profit than that made from fleecing a single mother living on a council estate, desperate to keep her ungratefull kid off crack!

/Edit plus there will be no tax for me when I get back to Heathrow, cos I won't be declaring em since we no longer seem to have either Immigration checks or Customs! Maybe I'll pick up some crystal meth too and some slaves lol.

Yeh DVD9 is plenty, this generation anyway.

As technology progresses anyway everything gets smaller. This includes file sizes. (e.g. if GTA:VC came out with the PS1 it'd probably take up about 20 discs).

And with GTA:IV, if anything the 360 will have MORE content, because it has been announced to having exclusive XBL content.

There are 10 kinds of people in the world, those who know binary, and those who don't

did you read that article at all,or properly?it states that they are rapidly approching a $1000 price tag by launch!!
just to correct myself if i have made a misinterpretation,but heres a quote from one of the researchers.

"We are rapidly moving toward a $1,000 platform at launch, which is not helpful to any consumers," says P.J. McNealy of American Technology Research.

How on earth did he get $1000.

Spare controller - OK , cables - OK, games - OK.

HDTV to play it on, nice new chair to sit on, new surround sound system, oh and of course building an extension on your house as a PS3 room. If you look for more expense you can always find it.

Maybe it should be $10000.

also to my knowledge,the price has not even been announced at E3,but hey i could be wrong,i may of missed it,someone else may of been watching it to confirm whether there is a "confirmed" launch price from E3.

@Connolly That was posted(website) and put in the News papers.There was no Misinterpertation.It came from Sony headman himself Kaz Hirai(CEO of Sony). (Quote)
sorry i have only just noticed,well to be honest,read this post properly,he is not sony's headman,this Kaz Hirai,
OK.... *S* i will have a go,sorry for any mis-spelling,Ken ,Katagirii..is the CEO of sony,He is the one that was interviewed and was quoted as being the CEO and the launch price,to which he commented on as saying "it will more than likely launch at $800-900USD and is not a console that is directed at the average household",now of course this may well be true or false,his statement,but to me it is looking to be very expensive come launch day.however even if it does turn out that it is going to launch at $800-900,this will not deter the serious gamer.now i'm not saying you or anyone here aren't serious gamers,but there are a lot of people out there in the big wide world that take their gaming very seriously,like an obsession you could say.

@ heraldsun

I don't really know what your on about. The price has been quoted. $499 and $599 depending on the size of hard drive.
