Ps3 uk price

What's so special about a blue laser? I have a blue laser pen...

I think the PS3's price is totally unjustified. In essence, the Xbox 360 can perform the exact same functions.

I think there price will be the downfall for them, its rediculous, I think the majority of people who are familliar with gaming etc will be lead away from the PS3 and onto the Wii and 360. Bit of a disappointment from Sony but i'll definately keep an eye on the PS3.

£300 or £350 would be reasonable.

I doubt this price is true... If you convert the US prices to GBP, it would be-

20 GB- 265.67 GBP
60 GB- 318.80 GBP

Obviously, they won't do these exact prices, but I assume it will be somewhere around there... maybe...
279.99 20 GB & 329.99 60 GB or something similar.

I don't see why people moan about the price anyway? You'd get a bog standard PC for £400 and for the price of the PS3 ( if it is going to be around £350-£430 ) i'd say thats pretty decent. People expect that because its a console it shouldn't cost no more than £300.

Fair point... Some people don't seem to understand that as the tech gets better, it IS going to cost more... Except the Sega CD Why I ever bought one of those I'll never know... $400 down the drain...

You mean the DC? Dreamcast?

Ahaha, no its not, blue lazer? Memory? Wireless?

I think its totally worth it.
If you don't like it, don't get it. I belive its fair price for it myself.

It's called BluRay, not blue lazer. It's a normal DVD drive that can read specialized discs with stronger pretection against illegal copying.

And no, its not worth it. Sony are using their Playstation fanbase as hamsters to see if the can get BluRay as the next medium for media. As for memory, all three consoles have it, not just PS3, and the low-end model isnt upgradeable. Wireless is on the Wii as well. Nothing special.

All I've seen is that you're trying to justify an overpriced console that is clearly not worth the price it claims.

Nope, the Sega CD-- It wasn't very well known, it was kind of like a... mmm... Primative PS.
