    Maybe they should decide on a release date first, the way Blu-Ray is going it could be well into 2007

    My local EBGames is actually taking preorders for preorders. I'm not kidding. You can put yourself on a preorder list, and they'll call you when they start taking preorders, then it's first come first served based on who comes in and puts their preorder money down.

    I know some stores around me are, but Im not putting any money down until I see some real gameplay footage and a rough estimate of the price.

    Dumb or smart aren't really the words where Sony are concerned. If they arrive late, they'll just spend even more on advertising, and increase their dodgy sales practices.


    Sony know that there's a price over which it becomes unrealistic to too many people. If it breaks $500, i'll be suprised.

    I'm still betting it meets the $400 price tag on the xBox 360.

    I was just in EB Games yesterday too! Meh.

    Yep, Just ask Sega and Nintendo, one day that lawsuit will end, but judging by the bleem one I don't expect it any time soon. :thumbdown 

    Sony is to consoles what Microsoft is to PC's EVIL

    The funny thing is Microsoft has almost taken up Sega's old spot, letting games that the assholes at Sony won't let on their system as they care more for looks and not substance. hey Sony, I have 3 letters for you, SNK
