Sorry, but 6 axis is not even Wii lite. Its crap. I had a GenCon similar to that on my PS1. Its a gimmick to try to hit Nintendo and it wont work.

Why is this so hard to understand? WHY?!?!

Lets make it simple.

XBOX 360 COMPONENTS- 20Gig HDD $1 dollar
- DVD drive $1 dollar
- Multi-Core processor $3 dollars
- Everything else $2 dollars

TOTAL X360 PRICE: $7 dollars

PS3 COMPONENT COSTS- 60Gig HDD $2 dollars
- New technology Cell processors - $2 dollars
- New technology Blu-Ray - $2 dollars
- More advanced Network/Wi-Fi/Blue tooth - $2 dollars
- 7 USB ports - $1 dollar

WHAT IS THE BIG DEAL? With the Sony you are getting more advanced technology, but you have to pay MORE for it. Why is it so hard for the SonyBonys to accept this?!?!

Actually, it may sound funny, but I'm being quite serious.

UPDATE!! I was just at the local EBGamestop when the Sony rep stopped by and told the store manager (who is also the regional manager) that he should expect a PS3 price of "at least $499, possibly more."

If that wasn't bad enough, there is more!

He also said, "also expect a higher than $60 price for PS3 games, perhaps as much as $65, this holiday season."

I SWEAR ON THE GAMING GODS THAT I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP. I AM PUTTING MY ENTIRE ONLINE REPUTATION ON THE LINE. I SPOKE TO THE MANAGER NOT 5 MINUTES AFTER HIS CONVERSATION WITH THE SONY REP.

If anybody knows any Sony reps, please call them and confirm *or* call your local EBGamestop and ask the managers what they have just been told by the Sony reps.

Also while there, I picked up the newest GAME INFORMER which states that Xbox is seeking to undercut the PS3 not with a price drop on consoles, but on the games themselves. They hinted at a price drop to $40 on new games, with additional content available via paid downloads on Xbox Live.

Sean, you work at EBGames or something like that right? Can you please name the PS3 exclusives you are referring to?

I am curious as two of my close friends manages two seperate Gamestops and neither one have this information. Let's gather the press while you reveal your newsbreaking story!

WHAT EXCLUSIVES?! STOP TALKING SHITE AND START TALKING FACTS!!

Sorry Lee, it seems to me that you just dont have answers. At least people on Evil Avatar are making attempts and *yes* I am willing to budge on issues.

You are one of these people who voice their FEELINGS as if it were FACTS and then don't understand why people disagree with you. To put it bluntly: YOU ARENT ACTUALLY SAYING ANYTHING. If you want people to stop 'arguing' with you, then MAKE A VALID POINT.

That's all.

Regarding my comment that a PS3 doesn't need an HDD if it is rewritable... since two features are redundant, it doesn't make sense to justify the expense of two rewritable formats on a game machine.
