i’m sorry but its to many people talking about a price cut. i paid 700 for my 60GB when it frist came out nobody wasn’t talk about a price cut than. K-mart have Lay-way,Gamestop you can paid on it until you get it. Its ways you can get a PS3 if you don’t have a job. People want it now but if you don’t have the money you my have to wait for your’s but I don’t feel sorry for the people who are crying.

All of the people saying that the PS3 shouldn’t cut its price because it is worth it and a better overall deal than the 306 are probably right. The thing they are forgetting is that in the real world, right now, that argument is not working.
No matter the cost of the 360 after buying a wireless adapter, wireless controllers, etc, Microsoft is still able to say it costs 199 and that will convince anyone who already doesn’t own either console to get it over the PS3.
Also the price cut wont be 50 dollars, at least 100 or dont bother.

[...] Exclusives: Killzone 2, and Metal Gear Solid 4? With fellow writers questioning if a price cut will really help PS3 Sales, this is at least going in the right direction by offering such quality titles with such a quality [...]

I dont think they should drop the price at all! I paid 500 bucks for my 40 gig a year ago and im very pleased.
It comes with everything built in right in the box and ready to play online with no extra charge. Hello people it has a blu-ray player! Its only obvious that blu-ray is the way to go right now for really making some AAA games. More space gives developers more of a chance to really make something unique. And Im tired of people saying blu-ray is not doing well, are you kidding me, blu-ray movies keep moving up in sales not down in sales.
Internet browser and the fact that the ps3 works so well with all kinds of devices, I swear its like a mini computer and a lot of people dont know all the cool stuff you can do with the ps3. The xbox 360 elite is 399.00 and still is not as high tech as the ps3, I know because my friend has an elite and every time he comes over he always sees me doing all kinds of stuff on my ps3 and he just sits there saying aww man i cant do that, aww man xbox live wont let me do that, aww man i cant watch free porn on my elite. Lubetube works very well on the ps3 as many other sites do, ya i know its efing awesome. Then you have to pay for all the extras: wi fi, xbox live, and of course repairs. Every ps3 no matter what size hard drive comes with everything the most expensive model has. Thats not the case with the xbox 360. And I dont care how many people say I dont need blu-ray, who wants to watch movies in beautiful high definition and get the most out of there movies, they know they want it. I was one of those people saying all that crap, now all i watch are blu-ray movies especially now that blockbuster has 1 day rentals for blu-ray for 2 bucks. Bottom line the ps3 is worth the 500 dollars i paid for a 40 gig. and now you can get an 80 gig for 399.99! you people are crazy and are cheapos man i swear. SONY dont cut the price you have sold millions of units so far at the high price point. Ps3 is an elite machine hands down with a wide library of AAA games and an awesome media hub that has computer capabilities. I mean hell we should just complain about everything being so expensive. Its the future people more advanced technology costs more get over it!!

They have to SEE IT, a PS3 slim with a lower price, at least a $100 PRICE CUT… and im sure they are going to buy it.

Te problem is that most of the people don’t look up what the ps3 is offering over the 360 in terms of hardware and in terms of quality.
And when i say “people” im talking about parents. They just buy the console with the lowest price tag.

They dont care about all the things that gamers know about each console. They dont know about wifi, hhd etc…
and i believe those are the ones who buy the most.

If Sony drops the price OF COURSE it will help but a $50 dollar price cut wont do to much noise…
They have to SEE IT, a PS3 slim with a lower price, at least a $100… and im sure they are going to buy it.
They should let buyers what they are getting if they buy a PS3.

IF They just see a PS3 black box for $500 and a 360 white one for $200, which one you think they will choose. Now if you explain to them why is $500 it maybe open their eyes.

I have to wait over a year to get my ps3 (i believe i pay 400) but it was worth it, i know i made the right decision.

I agree that you get your money’s worth when you buy a PS3. Unfortunately, I think the majority of consumers don’t see the value-add of a lot of the features like wi-fi and blu-ray just yet. The Xbox can do a lot of the same games, and in some cases do them better (Ghostbusters). My point is it all really comes down to the developer to put out good quality games to support it. Then the sales will come. It’s a chicken and the egg problem, and I think it can be overcome. A $50 price drop at this stage won’t make a huge difference, imo.

yes but it gives you wifi, add that to the 360 is 100 bucks.
plus 60GB HDD aint going to last long, if you want to upgrade the largest you can get is the 120GB and thats 190AUD.
im sick of people complaining that the ps3 is the most expensive console because IT IS NOT!.
you pay for what you get.
i dont see people complaining that porches are to expensive.
i dont see any one complaining how much of a rip off M$ HDDs are and wifi adaptors.
i picked up a wireless card for my PC for 40 AUD so what gives M$ the wright to charge 50 more?
i picked up a 500GB 7200RPM HDD for my ps3 for $460, what gives M$ the wright to charge so much for there HDDS?
if anything needs a price drop its M$s overpriced unreliable hardware.
