[QUOTE="superkoolstud"][QUOTE="m3Boarder32"]I pay $1700 dollars a month to rent a 850 square foot apartment. Is that really considered cheap?InfamousC

No you can't. Even in the suburbs the cheapest houses cost over $500K. Besides, i don't wanna leave Orange County CA.

i understand what he was "trying" to say but the poor choice words just goes to show how upset the Sony gaming department is for having blu-ray as a standard for their PS3. IMHO Sony knows now that Blu-ray should have been an add-on. Now it appears that they are so pissed at the lack of sells for the PS3 compared to the Wii and x360 sells. oh well i say cry me a river baby

I understand his point but he worded it in a way that isn't going to make him any friends. Don't try to bail him out. "Black people are generally athletic." Nothing wrong with that statement, but replace 'black people' with a certain other word and the meaning changes radically. If he didn't mean any offense, he wouldn't have used the word 'cheap' like that. I'll agree that people are way too quick to complain about being 'offended' - nobody has the 'right' to not be offended - but you don't make a comment like that expecting a positive reaction.NYHoustonman

10000 pesos is 909 dollars.

 I guess the US has cheaper people than Mexico.

Stating the obvious, really.  Based on our currency, we are definitely getting a killer deal compared to the rest of the international community (for the PS3, I mean).

"consider the US with its massive land and cheap people."

LoL listen to this idiot. Maybe people just don't want it. Go buy an apartment in New York and see if you can get more than 3 bedrooms with your managing director salary mr. Maguire. So what about the rest of the world sony? Are we all cheap because we don't want your console? Is the rest of europe, japan, australia and Canada cheap if they preffer other consoles over yours?

so first it was

CPM_basic

yes 

He probably said that out of frustration. Whenever businessmen complain or point their fingers, it's due to losing money. If they were making money, they wouldn't resort to insults. So, this is just a sign that the PS3 is doomed in Europe.Berserker_2

He got it backwards where I am I see cheap land and massive people.Riverwolf007

:lol:  Seriously though there's no fat people in America...

Or maybe americans don't want to waste their money on a crappy console. chicagog19
