Forums - Gaming - Poll: So who will buy a PS3 at the new pricepoint?

It's still too much for me... Especially for a console. I buy consoles for games, not the media or other stuff it does. So for me, Ps3 isn't worth that much money for me.

No.

I'm not getting a 360 either...I can't afford any new console right now.



LEFT4DEAD411.COM
Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

The price cut has made me seriously consider buying a PS3. I own a HDTV and would like to seehow blu-ray movies look on it, and even though there are only 2-3 exclusives on the system that interest me right now I know that this early in it's lifecycle that there will be more than enough others come along to justify it's price.



Nope, not yet. It's still $100 too expensive IMO and there aren't enough games I want for the system that aren't on the 360.

Maybe holiday 2008 after MGS and FF hit.

Nope, I don't have that much money to spend right now. Maybe in a couple of years.

No, I've got the money and a HD TV but I don't have a reason why to buy it yet. The Wii keeps me busy enough at the moment and I don't care about just graphics, it's about the games. I will buy either a 360 or a PS3 at some time, but that depends on the games. (last gen I obviously bought a PS2 next to my GC). At this moment the 360 has an advantage which is strange considering my favorite games are Zelda, Tales... , Fire Emblem, FF, and more "Japanese" kind of games. I really think Microsoft is doing great with titles like Blue Dragon and Eternal Sonata to expand the audience from an only FPS brand to a all round console with all types of games.



99% of the people say now the other 1% is maybe. I dont get it have you guys all been a hole or sometin? The huge exclusive game line up coming out this fall still doesnt make you want a ps3 even with a 100 price drop?

Nope. Not even close. I mean when you include tax, I could pick up nearly nine 360 games and almost 11 Wii titles. I'm not even glancing a PS3 until its $299 and even then I'm probably not picking one up. Given my growing disinterest in the Final Fantasy series, FFXIII isn't even a factor for me. MGS4 and White Night Story are about it for me as far as the PS3 goes and that isn't enough for me to pick up a PS3.

The PS3 cost about $850 US (6000kr) so I think the people will import one :)
