I say “especially when the games are the same price as those on consoles that have a hacking scene.” as it proves that Sony puts no relationship to quantity sold in games compared to price. Their whole sales model needs cheap games as the average family would never be able to afford to buy games all the time, so the result would eb a family with a 4expensive restrictive console with a few games. Now that’s would be considered a dud purchase by many.

How many of the PS3 owners only have a few games. I’d say 80% of them.

People will remember that Sony==burnt, and they wont be buying their next console, if they every bring one out.

Even if the price dropped in half, people wont buy these machines. No one wants to be stuck with a machine that you have to buy every game, especially when the games are the same price as those on consoles that have a hacking scene. People can’t afford to pay $40-80US for a game when they are running a family, or have other average expenses. The current sales of PS3 have been made buy hifi type people and the guy with no girl friend who thought the PS3 would be a cool solution. Well it’s a flop sorry to say.

The only solution would be for Sony to force down game prices to say $20USD, or to secretly release a flaw that allows hackers to open up the scene.

Bye. Sony==burnt

The “recession” has affected me in any single noticeable way.

Turn off your TV if you want to forget about the recession.

sonyman: Thats some awsome news you wrote there, truly appreciated, where have you found this information?

- I know that the PS3 is worth the money thats true indeed, but it is the time for PS3 to make a move like x360 has done several times and now is the time.

You are right about people been cheap asses. But look at the world right know. You have to understand that the economy has effected everyone. Gas, light, food, housing everything went up. Right know people can’t buy a console not even a Wii. People need food and pay there rent first. Whats more important food or technology? The world is going through bad times. We might get another great depression and if that happens holy shit! Video games will be last, for me to worry about. I just hope the economy gets back on its feet. Just imagine how many company’s world wide will go bankrupt. Sony has a very good reason not to bring the price down. THE ECONOMY is in a very shit hole. Even Microsoft layoff PC workers, that’s the first time in a long time that they needed to do that. Know there is this ONLive coming to MAC, PC and HDTV’s this ONLive isn’t going anywhere. People are going to be buying food first and pay there other bills. What SONY needs is to have PS1 and PS2 Emulated on the PS3 100%. That way it will give people a reason to buy a PS3. PS3 games + Retro PS1 & 2 games + Blueray movies + music = a very good price on saving a lot of tech from buying. Hell you can even install Linux. In my opinion just get a MAC or a PC if you want a computer. Don’t get me wrong I tried it, its just that Sony put a lock up chip for people not to use all of the CPU of the PS3. You and I know why people will find a way to but windows on a PS3 and Boom. Pandora Emu’s all the way. I can’t wait for a custom Firmware of the PS3. Than they’ll make a PS1 & PS2 Emu. It’s called reverse engineering my friend. ^_^
PS3 Firmware is cousin of the PSP firmware.

Ps3 does not need a price cut… Its worth the money! I have both the Xbox360 and the PS3, any my F***ing xbox360 gave me the RRD twice! I think I’m ready to toss the 360 out. 360live is a joke… Thank goodness for free online play on the ps3. who ever wants the ps3 price cut is just a cheap person.
