Joe Papasnap Maher Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 £500, no thanks..ill take 2 xbox 360's for that haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoyoyo Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 Yeh, i'm happy enough with my 360 at the moment.Maybe when they get cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 Silly money. Back in the day a console was what you'd want for Christmas or something, or you'd save up your money and get one. Now you need a bloody mortgageIt seems the kids that were brought up on SNES and Mega Drives etc are the same people buying stuff now, but they're older and richer...Need to sell my 360 though as I used it a few times then it's sat in the box ever since!If anyone wants it let me know!

Krisboats Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 (edited) Got 10 coming into stock at my shop on Friday morning. 1st come 1st serve, no pre-orders! £499.99 with 2 gamesMost specialist shops (game, gamestation, toys r us) will have pre-orders and no stock once these have been collected. £500!!! Thats silly money, i always thought paying £299 for an xbox when they first came out was bad. Seems the majority of punters think so too.... "In the US in January, 244,000 PS3s were sold to 294,000 Xbox 360s and 436,000 Wiis."Edit: I don't think they'll be just as sold out as you think they will Linky Edited March 21, 2007 by Krisboats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_Zoot Posted March 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 to be honest, i wouldn't buy one, even on my staff discount. But hey, i gotta try and make some commission!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haz Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 And more 360's would have sold if they hadn't deliberately short stocked them.PS3's looks wank, and it's loosing exclusive titles by the minute.And Monkey Boy, Street Fighter II cost £70 for the SNES, they were by no means cheap either. It's just that when you can pick up a console as awesome fun as the 'cube for £30, it's not really worth spending more nowadays.Anyone seen 'Mass Effect' for the 360, looks awesome. That and Forza 2 will own all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Token Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 Or..... Look at thisAnd realise that the xbox 360 is no competition for the PS3, xbox360 with HDMI will be the contender.Oh and this for rumours of a PSP2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 I think the PS2 was £399 when it came out wasn't it? So £500 for a PS3 isn't too outrageous considering inflation etc. I won't be getting one though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haz Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Nah, £300. Was an awesome console though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 My bros friend read in the newspaper today...The first week that PS3's were out in America, Game boy advance's made more money than PS3 sales.Only 1 shop out of 100 (or something) have sold out of PS3's.

Jay Jay Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 If the price range was in between the Wii and 360 then i'd get one, only to play Final Fantasy 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
