ugh... so PS4 to lose millions for years and cost over $600 at launch?

yes superchunck, that's obviously what was said.  you know, 'cause it would be impossible to improve on 8 year old tech without being both $600 and sold at a massive loss...

Was the PS3 "a significant leap" over the PS2? yes. I rest my case.

as i understand it the most expensive component by far was the inclusion of blu-ray, the ps3 was cheaper than stand alone blu-ray players when it launched at $600 afterall.  your rumors thread says blu-ray will be used in the ps4 instead of some new tech.  that along should make a significant leap without being $600 with massive losses quite probable.
