ShadowFan1 says:

finally, sony is starting to get the picture that people dont want to waste 800 bucks on something that is worth much much much much less. lets say 200 bucks.

07/10/2007 Above you...

I sure hope that people who bought before the price drop get something... I hardly got $100 worth of PS3 gaming (no games, only been playing demos :/)... :C

callan5 says:

Erm ShadowFan there is absolutely no way that the PS3 is only worth $200, im thinking if you have played a PS3, you only turned it on *if that* and played Enchanted Arms than turned it off, you obviously havent played any of the good PS3 games out or have looked at what else it is capable of.

$200.........ROFL

longarms says:

well it looks like the price drop is going well for sony if the amazon.com movers and shakers lists are any thing to go by
www.amazon.com/
and it is currently the number 1 selling item in the video games catagory.

Top Find Longarms man.

iddqd says:

Hmmmm, it'll have to be a pretty considerable price drop if I'm getting one... the only thing that could justify the price for me so far is that I heard that Haze *sniff* might be PS3 exclusive! *sobs*

That game looks incredible...

07/10/2007 Knee deep in the dead...

longarms says:

i dont think that haze will be a ps3 exclusive for ever but you wont see it on the 360 this year and you will see it on the ps3 this year. i think thats mostly to get it away from a game that that starts with H and ends in alo 3 cuase thats what most 360 people will be playing and they dont wana lose sales too it.

callan5 says:

I wouldnt be so sure of that Longarms man, i mean wikipedia have Haze down as PS3 exclusive, but you never know.

ShadowFan1 says:

EXACLY. i would have had a ps3 by now if it cost AT LEAST 300 bucks less. but i stuck with the cheaper concil because it was cheaper.

07/11/2007 Above you...

piti says:

But you pay for quality, so just like your going to shops and you want "peanut butter" the better brand cost 50c more but you know if you get the better brand your getting better peanut butter lol

Hopefully I'll have enough money saved up by the time the price drops here in Aus (damn you eBay! Why do you keep selling things I want!!). I can wait for a PS3.

Hey Liam W, whereabouts in Benalla are you anyway. I'm in Benalla too (even though my location says Silent Hill ).

Hey Callan, I just got my copy of Haunting Ground today. Yay! Haven't had a chance to play it though. Damn errands!

Awesome stuff Cherrona, i hope you enjoy the game & as the horror fan we all know you are, im sure you will

Cherrona says:  

lol I'm sure I will Callan. Now I just want a copy of Rule of Rose, but the ones on eBay are over AUD$100! I realize that it is rare, but I saw others that were cheaper (gone now ). I would've got the cheap one (PAL), but I didn't have any money in my PayPal account.
