i have fable its a RPG game. the best RPG game of all time in my mind. star wars knight of the old republic and SW knight of the old repulic 2. only on PC and XBox. their might not be alot of RPG games but their are good ones. the XBox has other 500 games now. the XBox have bad games, the PS2 have more games but also more bad games and many games are a like. the PS2 have more games but xbox have more good games. does Sony make games for PS2, no. does MS make games for xbox,yes. MS have been makeing games before the PS came out, MS knows about making games. who better to make games then the owner of a console.

Subject: Sony illegally Dumping PSP's
"Sony has confirmed that it's PSP handheld console, due to go on sale in
Japan on December 12, will cost only 19,800 yen (?100), a lot cheaper than
most analysts predicted.
The console, which has been cause for much speculation over its price will
go up against Nintendo's latest handheld console - the DS.
The price, which was expected to be a lot higher, means that Sony is
unlikely to make a profit on the hardware for sometime, but it does mean
that for the consumer getting the latest portable games console when it
launches in the UK next year will be more affordable than ever.
"First off, many people have been wondering how Sony is able to offer the
PSP "at such a low price." The answer lies in its manufacture -- "close to
50%" of the components of the PSP are Sony-made. Obviously, this includes
most of your game components, such as the Emotion Engine. But what parts
aren't? The LCD is an ASV LCD from Sharp. While that's the only company name
mentioned, other "external" parts include the memory and wireless LAN LSI."

CORRECTION: Anybody believe this Sony corporate propaganda bullsh!t?!?
WRONG, what this means is that Sony is planning to illegally dump their
products
at a loss of $200 dollars or more per game console. and to make matters
worse
all of the components in a PSP were made by the Sony pretatory monopoly in
Japan. So tell me how this is good for the world or for free kets?
PDA's, Tapwave Zodiac, Gameboy, GP32, any handheld device you can think
is being illegally targeted by Sony. If sony sold their PSP at their cost
it would
cost the same as a PDA or a Tapwave, $400-500 dollars.
Sony is illegally targeting all of the hundreds of companies that make
components
for these devices, and offer them CHEAPER than sony due to their larger
economy of scale.
"Dumping: The practice of selling goods abroad below their normal ket
value or below the price charged for the same goods in the domestic ket
of the exporting country. Dumping can be a predatory trade practice whereby
the international ket, or a certain national ket, is flooded with
dumped
goods in order to force competitors out of the ket and establish a
monopoly
position. Oftentimes, government subsidies are used to help absorb
temporarily
the losses caused by predation, leading to friction among trade partners.
Dumping and predation are considered to be unfair trade practices and, as
such, are prohibited under many national trade laws. "
Furthermore, Sony actually pays more to develop their own components.
Tell me how much does it cost to have your own chip fabriabtion facility,
and R&D to support it, and all the overhead involved? This costs billions
and billions of dollars... Sony is lieing these costs... They are
losing subtantially more money per unit than $200 dollars if you factor
this overhead into the equation, considering they are not selling
enough chips from their own fabriation plants to offset the cost.
In fact the Sony componets are actually more expensive than the industry
standard due to this." http://www.pda-forum.com/palm/Sony_illegally_Dumping_PSPs_326525.html
