| Caey said: It is known that both Microsoft and Sony launched a cheaper version of their console to be able to promote it with a lower price tag. They expect the consumer to buy the standard, more expensive, unit. But indeed you still have to lay down 500$ to own a PS3, yet before that you went into a store where they told you they didn't had the low-cost version and you had to face a 600$ price tag. I consider it 'a price drop', but indeed it's not certain the average consumer will notice this. But Sony did rather well, they did not come out with virtual numbers proving that they are N°1 in this generation, or start talking about the '10 year cycle' but just talked normal. And KillZone may need some more tweaking, at least the graphics aren't embarassing. |
Weterer you agree with the term "price cut" or not you do get something that was 600 for 500 and if you were mad that you couldn't find the 20Gb now you get the 60GB with Memory card reader and wifi . seems consumers are noticing though according to Amazon but more importantly it puts a PS3 back under 500 for Christmas.
I would dis agree that KillZone's Graphics are VERY embarassing (to the 360 and Wii ) That looks like the best looking Game to date. I actually think it Improved from the version we seen 2+years ago that absolutely everyone including myself tought there was no way that was Gameplay. Well now there is no Doubt those graphics are Gameplay. I think X-box will be able to push those graphics with the Xbox720
