The problem is, once blu-ray wins (which I think is inevitable, but not imminent,) stand alone players will be cheap enough to make the PS3 no longer a "Cheap Blu-Ray player."
Their early price drops forced them in to a corner where they realistically can't drop the price much more, with the huge losses sustained LTD. When a $150 blu-ray player is on the market, Sony won't be able to match it with the PS3 and will then lose a key card it is holding, the PS3's price vs other BR players.
Sony's game division doesn't want to go broke trying to sell consoles...
I am a Gauntlet Adventurer. I strive to improve my living conditions by hoarding gold, food, and sometimes keys and potions. I love adventure, fighting, and particularly winning - especially when there's a prize at stake. I occasionally get lost inside buildings and can't find the exit. I need food badly.
