[Mr N8]

I'll wait until they come down.

 

[Anubis]

no i wouldent bu one if it was $2.49 either

 

[Queasy]

If I buy one, it'll be to sell it at a profit to someone desperate enough to pay more than retail for it.

 

[Arkitech]

Anyone know what games will be available when it launches

I pops out the disc randomly, sending the disc at high speed injuring stangers.

Press release with launch day lineup

Not me, would have been an option if you could watch dvd's on it, but, the flashmemory movie stuff is a joke.

do you mean the quality of movies played on memory stick is a joke?

Nope. I've never paid that much for ANY console. I bought the SNES as close to release as I could, and still only paid $182.xx (of course that was 14 years ago)

 

[BRObedoza]

i was seriously considering it when i thought it was going to be $149. At $249 i'm not so sure now.

Ditto. I would've pulled the trigger at $149. $179-199 maaaaaaaybe. $249 - not a chance.

 

[Francodman]

Meh, I think i'll pick it up just to have it. The games look sweeeeet.

 

[Tremulant]

I won't be getting one. I've grown out of console games the past few years.. nothing is as exciting (to me) as FF7 or MGS were the first time.

 

[ChaoZ]

Sony just screwed themselves over. I'm not paying an extra $100 just for a bunch of crap that I'm not going to use.
