"The PS3..."

Whether it'll be good or not, I know for sure that the first lot of units will have something wrong with them and break or something.

I hate Sony so much right now.

But this time they'll have the advantage of being first. Aslong as they have low enough prices for people to want to buy alot of them by the time the other two come around, they'll do rather well.

I think it's best to release your console first because look at the Nintendo DS, if it came out after the PSP it wouldn't sell as much I don't think.

Did you see speculation about console prices?
Not pretty.

I'm getting a Revolution on release. No PS3 this time unless I have a lot of money and see one really cheap. So not for the first few years anyway.

Apparently the PS3 and Xbox 2 could be as highly priced as £500, with games prices rising to £50 again. Someone posted an article about it recently.

F**k that then.

What about the Cube 2/Revolution?

Well, seeing as no-one knows whether it'll be following the games machine/DVD player/multimedia device, what the games are going to be like, whether it'll be online, etc etc, no-one really knows.

It would be a good advantage for Nintendo if they could release their hardware and software much cheaper than the competition. But if that would put them in financial difficulty then I suppose there's quite a strong chance their prices will be rising as well.

I don't care, though. I'm getting a Revolution on release date anyway.

After the terrible day I've had at the hands of Sony (see "I've got GT4" thread), I will have to think long and hard about getting a PS3. Will probably be loaded with problems and I'll end up buying three of the bloody things. I've lost a lot of respect for them today, and a small amount of blood.

I also remember this talk being thrown about before this generation of consoles came out as well and it was proved wrong. I'll believe it when i see it

My thoughts exactly.

Well ... right up until Iwata says "voice recognition"
Then I slammed my head into a wall and prayed to every God I could think of that it was all a big joke.

Now I'm just scared. I don't want Ninty to blow their fase off with the virtual boy shotgun.
