**600 Makes Me...**

How can a company like Sony and its successor the PS be so shun upon once that one number was announced...600?

Sony a company voted by you people as having the best first party titles released is treated as a villian of the gaming industry all because of that one number.

So I ask the moment you heard the price announced what did you feel?

Disappointed.

wish i could get an hdtv but anyways on topic the price is a bit steep i was surprised to when e3 2006 was on i was thinking well this is ok then they said it would have hdd and went into more details what ps3 would have im like wow how much is this going to cost.

there was threads up that ps3 would cost 500-800 i said no way sony would do that but yeah those guy where right i was wrong. when that guy said 600 i was surprised and i was in disgust i couldnt believe what i was hearing i hated it.

but an accident with my mom and hospital they messed up here surgery so somehow she got some money and well she bought ps3 for me. but if it wasnt for that i wouldnt havever got ps3 for 600 i would have needed a price drop.  

well I said to myself ill never buy another sony game system again.

i thought uh..............oh well i will buy one if it has some killer games. i guess thats why i still dont have one.

Same here.

For 600 dollars people can get a new PC. Why buy a game system that won't be worth jack in possibly a short time, it's looking like it will be a real short time.Neal_Gore

I can buy a new one for 350....whats your point?

My point is Sony messed up, what's your point in making this thread?

ok doubt anyone will say this but my story wasnt fake and thanks people everything is ok now though. i didnt ask for ps3 i just came home from school one day shes like well i was over at walmart and i noticed they had a few ps3 and forgot what else she said but next thing i know is i find ps3 with fight night round 3 and untold legends that was really awesome

but i did feel bad cause she was the one that was hurting it was something to do with her leg anyways once i get a job ill buy her something really cool in return.

Um to see how other people reacted or felt when they heard the price announcement of the PS3....I swear it takes less then 30 seconds to read my post and its not too hard to understand.

PC doesnt have split screen or same screen multiplayer on a scale like consoles do.

and you don't need to keep upgrading every year with a console

Well, it's not that the PS3 isn't worth the $599 price tag. It is just that most people can't put up that much money on a gameing console, this is a entertainment device, it's somthing that you want not need.

So it becomes out of there reach, and all that desire becomes disappointment, and all the disappointment can become hatred.

...and hatered leads to the dark side. (had to say that)

but seriously, I was stunned, that Sony was gonna release thier console at that priced, and then became angry when they said that we would buy it since it had the playstation name on it. 

interesting to find out what people thought when they heard price point of ps3. dcm06
