The HDD will really be $80, but in any case. If you want to 'equal' the Playstation 2 and the Xbox in general and for online play it's like this:
Playstation 2: $200
Hard disk drive: $80
Modem: $40
Total: $320
Xbox: $200
Total: $200
Sony really had no choice to drop the Playstation 2 price. Even with the price drop from both companies with the Playstation 2 you are paying an extra $120 or so just to go online, with the Xbox it's already all built in.
Now the HDD for the Playstation 2 is larger, but who in their right mind will fill up 40 Gigs? I haven't even filled up 8 Gigs on my computer. In the end I think the PS2 online network will do average. But you are really getting a bad deal with all of the add-ons.
