nah, its more like $6-700 for the base system, but then in order to enjoy the gaming experience fully, you will have to upgrade to the better HD with more gig and RAM etc, which will push it up to around the 1000 mark. and i dont know if it will come out here on nov 15th, as ive heard japan will only be getting theirs by xmas this year, so we will get ours after them.
 
Yeah, they're advertising here too. I've been waiting 12 months for this - can't wait.
There'll be 2 versions, the first should be priced around $830 with a 20GB hard drive, the $999 version will have the 60GB hard drive

Make sense.

The ads I've read had 60GB on them. sounds like you might be right.

Blue-tooth controllers, blue ray discs. sounds good
 
I'll wait... considering I'm about to put a 200GB HDD in to my Xbox. lol

Nintendo's bringing out a new machine too.

Besides, when PS3 comes out, Xbox will drop it's 360 to be #1 in sales, so I'll wait till just after then, to work out what I wanna get.
 
I'll go whichever way FFXII goes...

Still to complete FF-X2, never got to play FFXI Online, cos of that, (and the pay-play rules - PFFFT).

So whichever console has Final Fantasy 12 on it, I'm there.....

FF12 is already out in japan on ps2 (been out for about 6 months almost), so i dont know if they will release it out here on ps2 or ps3. im guessing ps2. my japanese mate is currently playing the jap version and he says it is probably the best one hes played out of all of em, so i cant wait either!
 
i know its hard waiting for it but i can remember the ps1 coming out at $800 or so,and the ps2's the same,ive just waited and they come down to $300-400,this is where familys come into play,most people cant afford at the starting price so they wait.

should be a good thing the ps3

cheers

yeah the same am not gonna go wid the hype atm as it will be a half price within a year. plus playing pc games is better anyway wid a more powerful capabilities and free online servers.
 
damn i want one, but the price is just crazy!

Are they gonna stop makin PS2 games?

Im thinking of gettin a Xbox 360, the graphics are unbelievable.

Maaaate!!! lol. I forgot about it being out already in Jap Land. Thanks for the reminder!

And, if the Tech Demo goes thru to a full game, the PS3 will have a remake of Final Fantasy 7... how wicked would that be!!!
