    No it doesn't play your old games and you have to buy them all again from scratch. Now there's a recipe for success.

    I just don't understand the thinking behind it. They should have at least released an external UMD drive.

    Handheld devices have always been just a waste of money.

    Yeah the PSP GO was a total flop. It was a nice idea but Sony has a bad habit of pumping out dumb, useless, expensive shit.

    huh? im not seeing where u are going with that. Alot of ppl bitched about the price bc ur paying for the blue-ray and many didnt want it. The friends that bought it said they dont even use the blue-ray. If u like blue-ray and gamming the ps3 was a great buy......BUT if u dont watch blue-ray then its a bit of a waste sicne games dont use the blue-ray tech really yet

    the ps3 is the same price as the 360 isnt it? I would never even consider buying an xbox over a ps3 for the same price. And yes, handheld gaming devices are good for kids during long trips, but that's about it.

    Sorry, that would be more of a statement that Sony would make to its consumers. As for the upcoming game sections, well, I didn't know any other place to put it. As for the price, the PS3 was higher in price when both consoles just released, now I am not sure, I think they are about the same in price.

    when Ps3 1st came out they was like 600 USD maybe a little less since it had a blue-ray in it thus made it over priced and Ps3 sells tanked due to the 360 price and the Wii that owned both lol

    But now since blue-ray prices dropped so did the ps3

    so then it wasnt overpriced, it was actually cheaper than buying a single blu ray unit, and now its competitive pricing, i dont really see your side of the argument for not buying one now.

    Only because Sony was artificially limiting competition with the console by preventing other vendors from selling blu-ray players for a lower price.
