Hefty price of the game machine may be scaring away shoppers
TOKYO - Sony is giving away freebies to woo buyers to the new PlayStation 3 video game machine whose hefty price appears to be scaring away shoppers.
The latest giveaway from the Japanese electronics and entertainment company is being promised for the Australia launch for the PlayStation 3 set for March 23 — a Blu-ray Disc version of the Sony Pictures James Bond movie "Casino Royale," for the first 20,000 Australian PS3 buyers.
The PlayStation 3 costs a hefty $790 (999.95 Australian dollars), for the 60 gigabyte hard drive version.

Where is the PS3 cheapest? Japan?
Holy crap...$800+ for a PS3? SONY, THIS ISN'T EBAY!
It's probably the same reason that it costs more in Europe, taxes and all that good stuff.
taxes are bad if your currency is the euro, if britain just changed to the euro the prices would come down, cause most thing's that come to europe go through that crap pound sterling and then the euro. Just a point to make out ok.
oi. £ is not crap. ur stupid $ is! we like our pound because we were brought up with it and prices of items would double bcoz no one knows the conversion rate (greedy shops)
is there going to be anything we get in the UK free with the PS3 ?
