| McDonaldsGuy said: My question is why are consoles still so expensive?! The Xbox 360 250GB with Kinect is $399!!!! What the flip!!! It's a 7 year old console! The Xbox 360 with a 250GB hard drive should be like $149 + Kinect $249! I am sure manufacturing costs are low enough to still be profitable. The PS3 is $299, which was the PS1 and PS2's launch price. Should be $199 by now, but then Sony has a pretty good excuse (higher manufacturing costs), but still. This generation still doesn't have much to offer really, and I am ready for new consoles! |
PS3 is 250 USD not 300. Also, wait for the holiday sales. I know they will be awesome. Last year we had 199 ps3 with LBP 2 and R and C All4One and several other great bundles for 200 dollars. I think the 360 even had a reach and fable bundle along with so many kinect bundles. Just thinking about Black Friday makes me salivate. From now on I'm buying all my games then because they are usually half off even if they are relatively new. BF 3, Assassins Creed Revelations, Deus Ex were like 30 dollars and Uncharted 3 was only 40. They also usually have freaking awesome deals on greatest hit esque games. Nintendo had a buy one get one free or something like that. So many great deals. I have only bought Mass Effect 2 and psn plus this year and will only buy games from now on(unless I really really have to play them like Fire Emblem, Last of Us, and a few others) on Black Friday.
