that is just the conversion from 600 euroes to dollars, but when it comes over to america it will be cheaper, thats why everything is cheaper in america compared to europe.

rabbity a euro has a higher value than a dollar. it will definately be more dollars. whatever it is in pounds it will be higher in euros and even higher in dollars. i guarantee u that. however overall value may be different in the countries.

Don't judge the consoles by specs, more isnt always better, espec in PS3 specs.i know the truth, ask if u wanna know.......

Do not compete without valid correct technicality on your terms of the argument.

well, basically verything in america is cheaper than in europe, inlluding consoles. the xbox 360 sold for more than 100 dolars here in uk than it did it america and probably even more in europe. but i know what you mean like one pound is equal to 1.8 dollars or something like that, but something you can get for one pound will cost you only one dollar therefore meaning its basically half the price. also i am not talking about small things i mean big things like houses, cars, etc where the price is a lot cheaper in america.

well yes, many things there are better value, taking into accound currency value. but then agen most things like cars, houses etc are exclusive to amefican citisens only. unless you want to move to america. i quite like it where i am at the min. ive got everytihng i want/need for a happy life. etc.

cheap for a Blu-ray player.... that hints at many things. one of them being why say Blu-ray player, unless there doubting the power of the console..?? hence instead of saying cheap for power such as this, they say cheap for Blu-ray player...??
i dunno. just a guess. of what it seemed 2 hint at. lol

about £400. for all the basic stuff. no games, just 1 controller etc.
it is quite a lot of money that. (because its likely to be the same in euros as is it in dollars, which is way heavy..!)

everything you mentioned is just an add on something whcih will make you happy, but what iam interested about is the graphics and gameplay, and with the fact that the ps3 does not have unified shader is a massive blow in my eyes, b/c after seeing project offset whcih is for me the best thing i have ever seen from a game (even better than killzone), and now knowing that, that game works best with unified shader, is telling me someting.

No man unfortantly some people don't know how to read or comprehend what they're reading. That was a rumor it's not officail ok. Just how in the hell do you think that they would be able to compete with Microsoft it if was to sell for that price? Nad then Nintendo. Please they wouldn't make anything. And from what I see the PS3 has to be great to beat the XBOX 360 because boy them graphics are something serious. But yeah, I'm going to get a PS3. But I gaurenteee you that I won't have to pay $600 or $700 for it. I thinking more like $399. That's a good price and is reasonable and competable. Holla at me.

if i remember correctly you said a few mounths ago that ps3 would release in spring, and you basically shuved it down our throats with so much belief. so personally i am not going to believe your "But I gaurenteee you that I won't have to pay $600 or $700 for it."

I don't know much of his character, but I agree that the PS3 will NOT be sold at a 600-700 USD price.

Well how was I to expect that they were having problems with there Blue Ray Disc's. That's they man reason y the PS3 wasn't released yet. The tricked Microsoft with that one so that the xbox 360 could go ahead and come out.

2IIPack sony did not trick M$ into releasing the xbox 360 in 2005, they would have released whatever happened. i can not wait for e3, mainly b/c i will see all of those wonderfull games coming out for the xbox 360 but also b/c i will get too see what a let down ps3 will be.

yeah i ill probably do the same thing truthman.
