Sony Gets pwned again
 
Not even the editor of their official playstation magazine wants to buy one.

http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/gadgets/offi ... 193893.php

"Contrary to popular belief, editors of the Official PlayStation Magazine don't get free hardware for their own personal use...After Kaz announced that the price would be $600, I found my enthusiasm sagging....I can probably get the Wii and the 360 combined for the cost of a PS3...BluRay, is frankly something I don't care about. I have a crummy 12-year-old 21-inch very-non-hi-def TV sitting on my stand at home...I've never been an audiophile--as long as I can hear it, I don't care if it's mono, stereo, 5.1, 7.1--I really don't care how high-res the picture is. My bottom line is that as long as it has color and is free from static, I'm good to go...I hope that the price drops soon so I can consider it. But until then, this Official PlayStation Magazine editor will have to join the dark side."

What's that say when an editor for the official magazine of a product doesnt want to buy it.

if you're going to make jokes at the use of borders in photography then get that border out of your sig.

Proteus 08-14-2006 11:18 AM

I don't see the big deal about all this border bullshit..


And I was actually going to buy a PS3, but not anymore. I already have an HD DVD player, so it has no use.

Someone in the comments section pointed out a VERY valid argument: folks touting the "price point" of the machine CONSISTENTLY point to the most EXPENSIVE model of the PS3 and compare it to the CHEAPEST model of the XBOX360. They also pointed out that once you add on everything a person would need to add on to get the SAME functionality out of the XBOX360 that the PS3 is offering (wireless controllers, online functionality, wireless router if you dont already have it) - youre going to be spending nearly the same amount of money.

At this point, the people who are saying the wont spend 499 on the PS3 (100 dollars more than the BASE XBOX360) are just rabid fanboys. . .

I agree in that aspect, but they come as options. Its sort of like a car you could get auto or manual, power windows or manual etc. its forced right upon you though. But the point that piece to piece comparison to make similar systems is a very valid point
