I really don't think that the PS3 is going to cost $10,000 or the DRM is going to be that obnoxious. If either of those things are true, I will not be buying one this generation, but I just don't believe it will come to that. I know the $10,000 is an exageration but still, let's wait for some more realistic evidence before we start burning effigies. In late March, Sony is supposedly releasing some new news at the developer conference. So until then, I'm going to pay less attention to PS3 gossip and enjoy games that are actually released in my downtime and cut back on procastination and get back to working my ass off. Slug and Black Guy, let’s wait and see.

Unfortunately, places like u'r home r considered secondary markets. For as long as I can remember, system launches have always been focused @ those 3 areas then everywhere else. I don't c Sony changing that practice. Its unfair but its business 1st for those guys. I guess it really shouldn't b called a world wide launch. Ed,

Microsoft's "World Wide Release" was pathetic. It was released in Japan, Europe and America i dont classify that as a "World Wide Release" it more of a "Northern Hemisphere Release". They foregot Australia and New Zealand! If Sony is going to have a "World Wide Release" they better release it in Australia and New Zealand at the same time. I dont no why were always last in getting new games and consoles. Its unfair! ed :P I have no problem with a spring release but since i live in Australia i would like to see it released here at the same time. Microsoft’s “World Wide Release” was pathetic.

I think that PS3 will initially do well just by virtue of it being the PS2 successor. But I really think Sony has become complacent and sloppy. They've set ridiculously high expectations by initially proclaiming last year's E3 videos as being realtime and they've been playing the technical specification card too much; true gamers know that tech numbers don't matter. Sony is promising to deliver too much and I honestly don't think they'll be able to deliver. If the PSP is any indication of Sony promises of delivering everything but not doing anything really well, then I don't have high hopes for the PS3; ESPECIALLY if it cost $10,000. The X360 is a really great system IMOand it demonstrates that MS has learned from its mistakes w/ Xbox 1. MS is now a legitamite force that Sony and its fans should really take seriously instead of dismissing it as Xbox 2.5. I had a PS2 last gen but I went w/ the X360 this time because it appears to be more focused on games inspite of its other multimedia functions. True, most of the launch games r only ok, but name one system that launched w/ all killer eye bleeding graphics and gameplay in every game. Thats what I thought, none. PS3 just seems like overkill to me. Why do I need 2 HMDI outputs when I can only afford one HDTV? A Blueray drive that supports DRM laden content? 7 bluetooth controller support? Why? It sounds cool but its not practical. Honestly, I hope both systems do well because it means I'll see a successor to the X360 (which I'm really enjoying) and ultimately the competition will benefit all w/ better 1st party games. The Revo, man I dont know about that, but if DS is any indication of Nintendo's marketing power then it could do well. We'll C. I’ve been a lurker for a minute now and I think its time I responded.
