Means nadda if sony won't lower the PS3's price. If Blu Ray is cheaper in some cases or on par...why is the PS3 600 big ones?
first of all, he was comparing blu-ray to hd-dvd. if you want hd-dvd (without hd-dvd games) on the 360 you'll need $600 (unless you get the useless core).
secondly, it costs $600 because it has 40GB+ more space, wireless connectivity, and card readers. if you don't want that and only want a few GB more space (because the 360 uses quite a bit more of the "20GB"), it's $500. that extra $100 gets you a blu-ray player, blu-ray games, ability to use any usb keyboard, mouse, and webcam, free internet service, an HDMI port, etc. I think that's $100 well spent.
if you want a 360 (15gb version or however much space is left) with an hd-dvd player, it costs you $100 more than a ps3 with all the same functionality...yeah...600 "big ones"
