Playstation 3 - How Much?

belleabi0405

I'm not sure if this is a Grabbit, Anti Grabbit or Oh My God post but here goes,

Play have got the Sony Playstation 3 PS3 Console With 60GB HDD & 3 Games (Formula One 06/Warhawk/Singstar) for £549.99 Delivered. Even at £50 per game that makes the console a whopping £399.99! Shocking. Still someone might be interested, I assume it is pre-order but after the problems with Wii, I'm sure people will be wanting to order early.

Sorry, forgot the link;

Ive been told the 60gig doesnt have wi-fi / etc and its only the "ultomate" version that has everything - costs 650 with NO games. the other 2 are wi-fi less and not that many features...

I read in the Metro, the Wii sold twice as many consoles than the PS3 in Japan. It being The Metro, I just don't know how much I would credit the story being accurate.

How can they think people can afford this at these prices, its stupid. I wont be buying one. Ill stick to the 360 thanks

its cause sony has lost so much with the stupid blu-ray players they've put in them (which is also why theyre so delayed) gotta try and rake it all back in or theyre gunna go the way of sega with the dreamcast.

ill be waiting til theyve been out a while i think give me plenty of time to save up slowly, i have my wii thats all i want right now

i have pre-ordered a 60gb ps3 from gamestation for £425 console only

Well I've one pre ordered from Play since june but chances are I wont get em! lol

i think that the blue-ray side of the PS3 is quality but will sink sony as there are already dual Blue-Ray - HDDvd Players emerging and that will probably mean both formats surviving, a single format player won't have much shelf life/novelty value for me
£429 :eek:
Its going to really struggle, i expect the Xbox360 to be discounted to £129 & £199 (full kit) by April in a big 'anti-ps3' marketing campaign...........

I take it that's at a store, I can't find a place to that on their website.

Did they just take a deposit?
