HAHA I've found one check this out

Since the entry version and fully loaded version of the PS3 are $499 and $599 respectively, this means a negative figure of about $150-$250 for every machine sold by Sony.

I think they can be trusted because their source looks reputable. Even if it's not fully accurate it must at least be very close

MS says they need to sell 5 per console to make back the 360 loss. Sony might have to sell as many as 6 and at a higher price than MS

If so then sony will probably sell 6 to make their money back. But their is a cheaper system and the games might be a bit more then ms games.

Well if they sell the games for $70 then they'll only need to sell maybe 4 per system

yea sony took a page out of M$ book, but if that logic holds up this may not be good for us. M$ has two packages priced within $100 of one another. the ps3 also happens to have that. The ps3's "premium $599.99" is $200 more than xbox's "premium/pro $399.99." so based on the overall increasing in price differences between the two models, i don't really see sony directly coping M$ on their pricing stance for games. if anything M$ increased game prices $10, so IMO it would make more sense if sony increased $20. i hope thats not the case because that would mean $70/game, and i'll have to edit my other post on how many games i'll get :(

oh just so some don't get confused. the $10 increase i refered to with M$ is from the once standard pricing of games at $49.99. XBOX 360 games are now $59.99. with the PS3, i wasn't saying $20 more than current 360 games, but $20 added to $49.99 making games $69.99 or basically $70

Well of coarse they wouldent of copied xbox 360 price directly because the ps3 would cost more to manufacture so they would have to increase the price abitt (If you know what I mean)
