for all we know the only thing that can really compete with the Wii as far as price could actually be the ps2. so i think sony is doing the best thing by lowering the price and to continue to not only sell but push this thing. graphics are graphics as we definately found out the last time around, so combine ps1/ps2 game library to an already affordable price, and not to mention the price of games has lowered, and the ps2 is quite the competitor.....i wonder if or how long the ps2 can/will outsell the ps3???
also another thing to take into consideration, is the fact that the ps3 is not really made soley for "gamers." its more than just a gaming machine, and 600 bucks is quite a bit for just your "casual gamer."
take this scenario..... you are a parent or a fairly young child (8-12). $400 is a lot of money for a game machine and $600 is even worse, BUT with the showing that we saw at E3 this year, it would seem that both m$ and sony are not aiming these consoles for the younger generation, but actually older/young adults. an "M" rating on a game is not geared toward younger people. so considering:
Halo, MGS, GTA,DMC, GearsofWar(most likely), Hitman, Oblivion
Assassin'sCreed(most likely),DOA4, Killzone, ResidentEvil...ETC
sony might as well take as much advantage to their already dominated market. if i had a young one running around, the ps2 would seem like a perfect fit (right price..GREAT games). plus, every ps2 sold means....yet another potential addition to sony's already HUGE fanbase.
