Looks like the rumors were TRUE!! The PS3 is getting a price cut Feb. 11th of 09! As discussed in the article linked below, one of the head designers of 'Home' has hinted of a "new SKU that will be priced in the '$300' range to be released in parallel with Home's official launch."

The price cut sound great for the PS3 in 2009, but even better, we have a launch date for Home!!!!

Dead link. Troll thread. Read no further.

"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
