Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 20y 9m 1d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 17/03/06 04:32 AM Share Posted 17/03/06 04:32 AM I got a memo across my desk the other week saying that the PS3 will have a build price of over US$900 due to the hi spec processor and blueray drive. They said that even in volume they would not expect the price to drop more than $300 in 2 years.Either the PS3 will cost a heap or Sony will take a BIG loss on each unit sold.Myself, I have an off the nut PC, so I would prefer to keep that in spec as I only use my PS2 about once a year.

Early predictions was the ps3 would cost close to AUS$1000 which mums and dads I doubt will pay far. I think the release of halo 3 will get held of to around the time the ps3 and revolution launches also.Dazza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have call of duty 2 on pc, its awesome on that and the 360 looks 1000 times better.Dazza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest newl Guests Posted 17/03/06 12:00 PM Share Posted 17/03/06 12:00 PM heh COD and GR..the best way to ruin the game play they truely offer is to play them on a console. Some games are best played on a PC and others on a console.I won't be getting a 360 any time soon and don't think I will be grabbing a PS3 when they're released either. I usually tend to lag behind the releases by a year and some change to let the games flow and prices to settle a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
