YES!
the links are not doing there thing but..."An interview with Sony Computer Entertainment America chief Jack Tretton in the latest issue of Game Informer (via Joystiq) revealed some bad news for consumers waiting for a lower-priced PS3. When asked point blank whether price drops for the PS3 will be "as soon or as drastic as they were for the PlayStation 2," Tretton responded with a curt, "No."

so the best reason i can come up with to get a ps3 is that they arent going to get any cheaper anytime soon!


EDIT: i may sound really biased.. but i SHALL, out of necessity be getting one for Gran Turismo 5. long way off tho... and as im talking about a future purchase i think i can be as critical as i want

Wow, thats absolute genius.

No one is buying the most expensive console because they thought they were getting too much for the money.

Do people get paid to come up with stuff like this ?

Can I get one of those jobs ? It must be impossible to get fired because all you have to do is come up with the dumbest thing you can walk into.
