5. The PS2 is actually $130 and it needs a $25 memory card - That makes it pretty darn close to the price of the Arcade which does have online functionality and anyone who buys a PS2 over an Arcade at this point really needs their head examined. Since this is controversial I'll explain.

  • Awesome library? (Much of it is out of print/hard to find)

==> awesomely targeted hardcore 

  • Awesome upcoming titles? (Like?)

==> casual dont care about upcoming titles and these upcoming titles are mainly, guess what, hardcore

  • Awesome visuals? (The Xbox 360 shows a clear difference even lay people can appreciate)

==> casual dont care about visuals

  • Great word of mouth? (Gamestop employees will likely suggest an Xbox 360 Arcade if you're holding a PS2 box. - I would) Also if you're buying it for the kids do they want a PS2? *All my friends have Xbox 360s and Wiis! and PS3s! *

 ==> people prefer Wii ... we all know this (check VGC numbers) !

In other news the Kia Rio is the cheapest car on the market at 10,000 dollars but is also one of the worst selling because it sucks. The camary is a very good seller, far better then the kia, but also is twice as much with a lot more features then the Rio. Cheap isn't always the winner. Plus if people REALLY want cheap, there's the PS2 which I bet will be 99 dollars for the holidays or the current price with more bundled games.

 

 

 ==> you just have to hope about a "Wii short supply AGAIN"



Time to Work !
