I'm going to wait a few price drops.   But the only reason I want one is Final Fantasy.   It doesn't have much going for it... in my opinion...

Well in Japan they have been comfirmed to cost as much as current Playstation 2 games and an official statement on Sony on games prices outside of the Japan has not yet been released. The prices shown are placeholders for what retailers believe the games will most likely cost. Considering that the market hasnt rebelled at such high prices though I wouldnt be surprised if games cost 59.99.

I will be getting a PS3 as long as the online play is good and they release good games which both things will probably happen.  As for $500 for it, thats fine with me as long as the online is free.  Xbox360 cost $300 or $400 depending on which one you want and you have to add the cost of online gaming with it so it comes out to $60 X 5= $300.  So in the end you don't save money buying an xbox360 you end up paying the same price with the low end model but you if you get the premium xbox360 it comes out to $700  (not so cheap).  I think it costs about $5 a month for online gaming and its not so cheap in the long run.

I do like PS 3 better then X-Box 350 and much more games announced for PS 3 then the one's for X-Box 360, X- Box also has some good titles, but i don't think it is worth 600$. Maybe, i'm not sure yet, but Final Fantasy XIII is a magnific game and i have to think and wait some more to be sure that i will buy one. At this moment i preffer to invest some more in my PC, if you want to know more check out my latest blog. :D And if you are there say what do you think. :)

The 360 is the same price if you add the HD dvd player, $399+$199=$598. So it is worth $600.

seeing as US is only getting 400k ps3s at launch (I heard 2 per store) not that many people are going to get what they want on launch day.... and those that do might have to send it back for repairs, much like the 360.  Hopefully sony will actually send working consoles... anyways, as far as winning the war will go, I don't think anyeone will be able to tell who will win the war until at least a couple years down the line.  as far as right now goes.. nintendo is really kicking ass (2 mil already made and 4 by christmas)

FFXIII is one of the major reasons I'll be getting a PS3. So yeah, I guess FFXIII makes it worth $600.
