I heard on the news that some guy paid, and I kid you not- $10,000 dollars for a playstation 3! Thats just nuts. But what about $600? 600 bucks is a little steep for my budget.

The PS3 is nice but I don't think it's worth the $600 in the first place but there are the desperate types that are going up to thousands of dollars and that's just madness! People on ebay are going crazy. If you;re going to get a game system the Wii would be alot better (and affordable).

In my opinion, it is worth $600. The PS3 includes Blu-Ray Disc, a 60 GB hard drive, Free online capabilities, wireless controllers and best of all; High-Definition graphics. Only a Blu-Ray disc player is $999 alone (blu-raydisc.com). Also a 60 GB hard drive is worth over $100 for a computer. Wireless controllers are like $40 for the PS2 and last High Definition graphics are really hard do find. And to finish it off, the PS3 is 40 times more powerful than the PS2!

PS3 Price - $600
One by One price - $1100+

Why pay $600 for it now when in a few years its gonna sell for way cheaper. Besides we go out and get the latest technology only for something far more advanced to come along a few years later and then what we thought was so cool is yesterdays news. The game companies make the big bucks because they know that they're gonna keep making new consoles every few years and we're gonna be stupid enough to keep buying them. Its a never ending cycle.

600 us funds no danger? 600 AUD yeah ok. fairly grab your self some authentic high quality comp elements and interest away. I outfitted myself my comp for 1000 AUD, it really is about 750 USD and it has authentic high quality pics, more effective than any "next gen" console. yet in case you want a console, then i assume PS3 can be a thanks to flow, besides the undeniable fact that you're more effective off waiting a lengthy time period untill the fee in interest and console drops somewhat. Console-sensible, that is going to outrank 360 a million.5 & 2 and the Nintendo's Wii. that is is the finest determination by far.

Here in the UK it's going to be £425. That's about $800. So you're lucky that it's only $600. I've still preordered it though, and a Wii.

Some people are crazy... they just spend whatever they want, for whatever they want, whenever thay want! Personally I'd wait for a while for the price to go down. Also, you are not going to be able to find one for $600 right now, you'll have to buy one on eBay or something for much more then that if you really want one!

Well if I had the money I would do that.

But you know that 99% percent of those people who paid for it will go home take a pic of it and sell it on E-bay for 1000 dollars

I think that it is WAY to much for a game system. But that is my opinion. I will wait a couple years for the price to go down and then buy it. For now i am going to buy the Nintendo Wii. It is way more affordable and it is interactive.

No people are just impatient and have to have it NOW. some just even want the status and just being able to say, " i have a PS3". it's stupid yea it's powerful and i understand the pricing but for people to go that crazy wit all the riots and fights and the shootings is ridiculous.
