Yeah and futureshop. Keep in mind i went to a american best buy and a american futureshop (websites) and they were not as expensive. I'll get the links in a second or two.

EDIT: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?navLevel=5&type=category&...

Nah I dont think so cause you could always rent and buy used games. And buy the must haves new. But is 60 dollars American converted over to Canadian dollars $75 dollars?

I think most of us agreed on this.
Ps3 games should not cost more than $5 over the price of 360 games.

Yeah that would be fair because ps3 has Blu-ray disc and the 360 does not. As well from the ps3 is a much more "powerful" system so the cost of games would/should go up.

The motion sencing to yeah I kind of forgot about that. But speaking of motion sencing it would seem a bit hard to get used to. Like lets say if you tilt the controller somthing happens like the camera angle would switch and that would screw me up. So does that mean i'll have to hold the controller completly straight like think about it nobody holds a controllerr completly straight.

I dont think so.
If it will be used as primary control in a game then they'll work out just how to use it. eg War Hawk
If it's not primary control then you'll only use it for specific task. eg. COD3
If its optional then you can just turn if off and use traditional controls. (maybe games like madden or fatal inertia)

Its all up to the will of the game developer.

Yeah or I was thinking maby there was a button on the side of the controller that you could press then it would activate. But then when i was looking at the controller I didint see anything like that.


But that would be good if they had an option were you could turn it off and on in the option menus. But i think some game that you would have to use it and theres no turning it off.

Yeah like i said war hawk they're pushing motion sensing as a selling point of that game so i doubt that you'll have a choice. Not that i want a choice for war hawk cause i think motion sensing is awesome for a game like that

Yeah dont get me wrong motion encing could be great i just dont know what it's like and never played a game (in this case system/controller) that's done that before so it may get annoying. As well I just remembered I was watching this one video game show they were saying there using motion sencing and that you had to use it or somthing like that. But I forget what game I know it was a first person shooter though.

Yeah of coarse. So back on topic um yeah so all those reasons are probably why ps3 games are probably going to be more expensive then the 360 games. But hopefully only 5 dollars.

But I heard there not making money on the ps3 but the games itself. If so they would have to charge alot on games too make some money. Is that true ps3 not making any money on their systems?

i really can't say i have no idea at this point.
An educated guess would be about $200 - $400 per console
