Look, I think we can ALL agree on something.
If we can't all conceed that the PS3 is an overpriced piece of shit, at least we can agree that it is OVERPRICED?
Clearly these units are not moving at the rate they were moving as preorders, when people were seeing them as sources of profit, not gaming.
Sony found the magic number, and it seems to be $500.
Then again if they had launched with, I don't know, one MUST HAVE game, this would all be avoided. A Final Fantasy, MGS, or SOMETHING. It would move units, and auxillary games like the ones that are actually out now, would have a greater chance of moving.
