Or you should buy both instead of PS3 then. ;)

Looks a bit 'ugly' by the way. :p

so thats actually what the ps3 is gonna look like?

well... the design doesn't look the best (looks kinda like a souped up dvd player) but we'll have to wait to test outs its performance which is what really matters.

Perfomance? Take a look at the real time demos on PS3 harware here (http://www.gametrailers.com/). Don't forget to try the FFVII demo (Any remake planned btw) :)

The Revolution's got all those games from ye olde days, though. Definitely makes it enticing. And the PS3's got a larger library (for what I play, anyway) than the 360.

look nice, I like that it can play mini dvd format as well.
I had gamecube but I sold it after about a month of being very dissapointed with it, I hope that doesnt happen here.

i just googled the price for xbox 360 and ps3 and the results were:
ps3 $450

xbox 360 $400

I'd doubt that they'd really start sales that high. It's way too expensive for most gamers. If anything, I'd expect them to wait until new processors come out, which would reduce the cost of the resources, which would in turn reduce the console's price. But I'm not a business major, so I wouldn't know. :p

noone even knows how much its gonna cost anyway so you cant just make that assumption

I think it's safe to assume it's going to start at at least $200. This last generation was a bit pricier but when the average gamer is somewhere around 26 years old, there probably isn't much money that can be shelled out for entertainment. Unless, of course, you come out of Cornell with a B.S.E. in Mechanical Engineering and a $80,000 starting salary, for example.

whatever the price is, i think it will be affordable to most gamers. they wont want to set the price too high and lose out in sales to xbox.
