I think Sony will wait until AFTER Microsoft launches XBox360 before they announce any pricing details. They've been telling publishers that it wont be unlike their other console launch prices ($299, $299) so I would expect $299-$349
Nope it's AUD.

If that was american dollars man I'd be bankrupt by now owning all 3 consoles.

I just remember the PS2 and PSX being hella expensive. Xbox launched for something like $500 aud or something? I forgot

Cool stuff. I can't wait for PS3 to come out, since I'll have a bunch of money at that time.

Sony sounds like Microsoft now. "We'll make the price lower to take a hit"

Anywhootles.... the highest price i'm planning to pay for the PS3 would have to be $500. Taking into consideration that I do have a high paying job, but I want to be real and not spend more than $500 on a gaming console. Thats just my opinion.... everyone else may have a lower budget or a higher budget.

This coming generation, I'm planning to get 2 consoles as to not miss outon 80% of the exclusive games that usually come out.

At this point it's Xbox 360 and Ps3... considering I have no idea what the Revolution will do just yet. Originally it was REv and PS3.....we'll have to wait and see. Heck if the prices are low enough I'll end up getting 3 three consoles...
