Forums - Sony - Sony: 'Real price of PS3 is £614.98'

Quartz on 12 December 2007

Here is a bit of fun...

From here> http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/gaming/a81557/sony-real-price-of-ps3-is-gbp61498.html

" According to the Sony diagram, buying an equivalent MP3 player would cost £190, the CD player would be £90, the DVD player would be £49.99 and the Blu-ray player would be £299.99. This means the real cost of the £299 console's components, according to Sony, is a staggering £614.98."(~$1250)

That's an expensive system, although at first glance it is an MP3 player...but not one you can actually go out Jogging with!

:p That even doesn't make sense because when you buy a BD-Player it plays Dvds and Music discs isn't it ?

So why should I a dvd and CD-player if my BD-player can do that ?

Where is the game playing part?

They forgot to add in: paperweight, Xbox 360, one Gamecube (or half a Wii according to a popular argument) due to the half-assed motion controls.

Thanks for trolling.

My post was no more ridiculous than that £600 argument. Stupid things require stupid answers...

Well, I think we can safely say that your answer was indeed very stupid.

I thought it was obvious that I was just making a parody of a stupid argument, don't be so defensive guys. It is however true that they didn't add any cost for the gaming part, which strikes me as odd in an advertisement for a gaming platform.

The PS3 is much more than just a simple gaming platform.
