TAZ! - You are also forgetting about VAT. Add in at least an extra 10% sales tax for the US or take off 15% - 20% for UK and Euro prices.


Depends on the state but no state has 10% sales tax.  A few states don't even have sales tax, and the ones that do vary from 3-8%,

You are forgetting about tax that the cities give.

The city of Chicago has the highest total sales tax of all major U.S. cities. It is also one of the most complex. 10.25%

Yes a few cities have higher tax, and there is a hell of a lot of exceptions to everything in taxes but in general it's far lower than 10%.

very funny :

from the french website :

what do you think about the effect of the 100 euro price cut :

Retailers : il will have a good effect. PS3 is the dreaming console. Even if people like to critic it, people also want to buy it. Many people have bought a Wii because it was cheaper or a Xbox360 because PS3 was so expensive. Now they may be able to get their dreaming console. There is 1 thing Sony could do to add even more effect to his price drop : add the retrocompatibility. People are always a bit disapointed about the lack of RC in the PS3 when they learn it.



Time to Work !

or 300 euros US

Once it is confirmed I expect the very next day (or following week) MS will reveal what they have been planning in response to this event. Surely you all must realize they have something planned since they've been saying since Spring they would be ready to act in the event of a price cut.

All i see Microsoft doing is making the price of the Elite to what the Pro model was. Maybe a new SKU, but hardly enough to mess with a 100euro pricecut and Slim.

Then HOPE that Left 4 Dead 2, Halo 3: ODST and maybe even Modern Warfare 2 will keep sales rather high.

Isn't the PS3 at 350€ actually?
