Was the PS2 really 300 US Dollars when it was launched? I paid 1250 Dutch Guilders for it when it came out. Thats around 600 US Dollar! And that was the standard retail price here in the Netherlands/EU.

So for me the PS3 was just as expensive as the PS2.

And I get alot more than I got with the PS2. HD, BR, Online, Streaming (DIVX/XVID/MP3's/everything) from my PC.


 Europe has a lot of stupid import taxes on electronics, that bloat the price of systems. Yet Brazil is even worse.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
