As long as you don't expect PS3 to get to Wii or PS2 levels, then yeah a $299 PS3 will be something.

Well, it`s possible in Japan, since just several japanese oriented games moved PS3 to 25-35k sales range. And in not so distant future PS3 is getting FFXIII, then GT5, FFXIIIv and MANY japanese oriented games among them jrpgs. Now, with 29,900 price and possible slim model + colors, i think it may get to Wii level sales in worst case. =)

Europe is already chosing 400 euro costing PS3 80GB over 200 euro costing x360 Pro, or sales are on PAIR. PS3 will do much better, than x360, and with GT5 or bundled GT5 with 299 euro PS3 will make wonders.

The hardest thing is in NA, but we will see, how 299$ PS3 will do there. KZ2 bundle with PS3 at 299$ could make wonders...  Anyway, TIME will show. =)



Every 5 seconds on earth one child dies from hunger...
