That is just ludicrous. They are pricing themselves out of the market!

I think you've got to expect a price like £350 for all that you get, i'll certainly still get one if the games are good

so your sayin you got put off the PS3, by the PS2, that right?
well they dont compare at all. you can play all ps1 & ps2 games on the PS3 aswell. think of the PS3 as a rolls royce - the PS2 is a scooter with a flattie!

oh right!
well the PS3 is & looks awesome imo. top spec to go with it, will be selling my PS2 when I get mine. If you don't like it, you can always take it back or sell it on ebay anyway.

GB are the controllers any good, they look a bit dodgy

Post by Golden_Boy™ on Apr 9, 2006 22:32:55 GMT -1
I aint used one yet, but they look to be better than the PS1/2 controller's. Thing with them was, after a while playing, you'd get strain in your hands, maybe just was the way I held it lol look alright to me. Course if you had a PSP like me, you could use that as a controller...

£350 sounds a bit pricey really, cos half the stuff they are advitising it has is a load of bollocks anyway, who cares about all this dvd shit and bluetooth stuff. i want a ps3 with amazing graphics and realism and a wireless controller, all the other stuff that is part of it is putting the price right up.
