    Re: Playstation 3 concept art

    I would never buy a system that costs 700 dollars even if I had the money.

    If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

      Wow, that's pretty stupid.

      I would be willing to be the $700 dollars is like a "before you can buy them" price. I seriously doubt they would start at $700 dollars. Sony isn't that stupid. They know a lot of their customers are kids, and how many parents (or kids for that matter) would be willing to shell out $700 for a gaming system?

      Even if it does start at $700, you know it is going to go way down. Remember how SEGA Saturn started at $500?

            It looks like Sony still plans on making a firm stand against putting 4 controller ports on the machine. They just can't turn their back on all the extra cash they'd get from selling multi-taps.

            I agree it sucks, but the Xbox is the worst offender imo. Want to play DVDs? Shell out another $20. Want to hook up 5.1 audio? Welp, another $30... Sony may not put 4 controller ports on the system, but at least they gave you a digital audio connection and dvd playback ablities out of the box.

            HDTV, 5.1 Digital,Hard drive and 4 controller ports included. Yes you had to buy remote to get DVD playing, however I bet most PS2 owners also bought one instead of using controller. Also the digital audio on PS2 is not IN GAME digital surround as far as I can remember.
            There's no comparison as to which of the 2 abused the add-on aspects. Not even close...

            Actually HDTV and Dolby Digital support does not come out of the box. Thats another $30. On top of that, they dont even give you the digital audio cable with the AV pack, so you need to shell out another $20 for that if you want digital sound.

            I agree, theres no comparison which one abused the add on aspects. I for one think dvd playback and 5.1 support out of the box is much more useful than 4 controller ports. Sure, PS2 owners may have elected to buy a remote for the system, but they didnt have to. To get the Xbox to play DVDs you must shell out another $20 (or hack it).

            BTW, I dont even own a PS2 anymore, but the truth is the truth. The Xbox add ons are much worse than the PS2s.

                      I agree it sucks, but the Xbox is the worst offender imo. Want to play DVDs? Shell out another $20. Want to hook up 5.1 audio? Welp, another $30... Sony may not put 4 controller ports on the system, but at least they gave you a digital audio connection and dvd playback ablities out of the box.

                      HDTV, 5.1 Digital,Hard drive and 4 controller ports included. Yes you had to buy remote to get DVD playing, however I bet most PS2 owners also bought one instead of using controller. Also the digital audio on PS2 is not IN GAME digital surround as far as I can remember.
                      There's no comparison as to which of the 2 abused the add-on aspects. Not even close...

                      I still disagree, PS2 makes all their money on all the perphials and stupid crap they sell. And I pity the FOOL!!! who disagrees

                        It looks like Sony still plans on making a firm stand against putting 4 controller ports on the machine. They just can't turn their back on all the extra cash they'd get from selling multi-taps.

                              I think its safe to say that both companies make all their money off of add ons. Think about how many people buy an Xbox for the HD features then realize they need to shell out another $30 for it.

                              "Oh wait, you want the DVD playback that is advertised on the box? $20! Dolby sound for the movies? $30! Oh, and you need to buy the Digital cable since it doesnt come with the AV pack, thats another $20! Cha-ching!"
