My dad brought the email home it is around £260 to keep inline with Xbox 360.

Thanks for thanking me.

[paradox]

[LevelingProject]

Official PS2 magazine says £399 mate.

[,Alexx.]

[Lincoln Imp!]

If the games are gonna be averaged at around 50 quid like xbox 360 then stuff it...
Oh yer and cheers for the info :D

[iAdam]

No problem.

[ozzie-ing]

No problem.
ill tell you what if ps3 comes out in may priced £260 ill give you 5 hc
if it doesnt you owe me 1 hc

[iAdam]

It will be around £260 in woolworths how many times do you want me to tell you?

[Rou]

Id rather have a Xbox360 , watch me get flamed.

[iAdam]

You have your own views.

[ozzie-ing]

It will be around £260 in woolworths how many times do you want me to tell you?
ok then if its £250-£270 you win if you dont try your lying

[NekkLe]

Rofl at this thread.

Last I heard, the PS3 was going to be released late April early May, so yeh I knew about that, But I reckon £260 is a fairly poor estimate. I'd go with £350-£400.
And if everywhere else was going to sell for £400 and Woolworths sold for £260, then who would be making profit? Most shops will sell around the same price, if not £5 cheaper or dearer, so yeh, I doubt it.

[Bear-Max]

I don't believe this at all. Sorry.

[Dudeitsme]

Im sorry but i cant belive you

ive read it in magasineslate 06? Its already been said its coming out in about 3 months into 07 so that xbox 360 would be nothing

[ozzie-ing]

late 06? Its already been said its coming out in about 3 months into 07 so that xbox 360 would be nothing
i no but if i said mid 07 no1 would belive me lol

[Bear-Max]

Anyway, if this would true it would be great - Halo 3 is schedualed to launch on the same day as the PS3 to try and scupper sales (according to Bill Gates).

[mnbvjifhgtge]

[ozzie-ing]

[paradox]

DJ-Simpson if we could see your proof you would be believed?

Yet funny that Bungie denies it... I hate halo anyway, so overrated. PS3 will crush 360 :)

[Wootzeh]

If the release date had been given out, it would be plasted all over the internet.

well thats isnt true as if you watched the program on ITV1 a while ago its ment to be this april or next as they dont want to have the same date as halo 3

[smurf-you]

I heard it was 240, it isn't 400 uk pds, it's under 300 uk pds.

[iAdam]

You could see my proof if I had a scanner or my digi cam worked.
