    The price is certainly hurting the console; both of my friends would like to get one, but the price isn't motivating them any to go out and get it.

    I just hope Sony does the smart thing and lower the price this Christmas season when some good titles start coming down the pipe.

    i would love to have a ps3 but i am not about to shell out that much cash for a game system. it would have to be at least $450 for me to even consider it.

    As you said earlier, good games take time to show up.

    Well, that exactly what makes folks hesitant to get a PS3. Things may change alot when good stuff will come out.

    Its weird how the price of the PS3 magically increases as its shipped across the world... Its not like it really costs more to produce a unit for another country or continent...

    Is that before or after taxes? In the US, 600 dollars is before tax. My PS3 cost me 642 dollars after tax.

    i think after tax, but AUD$1000 is still a big price hike,
    USA$600 is AUD$726 so thats AUD$274 extra

    Are you saying the PS3 will most likely out-sell the PS2, one of the best consoles ever?
    Dont hold your breath, the Wii, Xbox360, and PS3 wont outsell PS2 anytime soon, and might not, I doubt Wii will make 35 million in a few years(Nintendo saids 4).
