ToneKnee Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 (edited) KUTARAGI PROMISES MORE EXPENSIVE PS3! WTF is he talking about?! Ken Kutaragi, yes, Ken "The Rag" Miyagi, has promised an "AV-centric PS3." So instead of buying a PS3 for gaming, it would be for enhanced audio and graphics capabilities instead. Obviously Ken mentioned that it would be a lot more expensive than the current PS3 which is damn expensive already. Speculation around the announcement is guessing at an expected price tag of about $2,500. The new PS3 would include a "power supply unit, anti-shake insulator, twice the main memory, and 2x HDMI to split sound and video output." Does Sony need more money to make up the more than generous hit each PS3 unit is causing them? Does Sony think quadrupling the price will solve their problems? **** it, let's make a Sony Porsche. But it doesn't drive, it just plays movies in 1080a. The 'a' stands for aggressive - if your friends buy anything less impressive then 1080 progressive Sony products, it drives over to their houses and ****es oil on their living room floor to short circuit the competition. Why not release a $1 million dollar PS4 right ow, but only release 10 of them? That way when 10 rich bastards buy them they get to show off graphics the 360 can't compete with anytime soon, plus the extra 10 million helps cover the PS3 sales losses. Work with me Sony, I'm trying my hardest to help you out here. If I have to watch you make a $2,500 PS3 just to see another 16 year old pimp smashing-my-PS3 video a littler bit of the gamer inside me will die.

bangbang023 Veteran Posted December 21, 2006 Veteran Share Posted December 21, 2006 This lack of focus of what they want the PS3 to be is exactly what's hurting it right now. One minute they want it to be the most powerful gaming machine and the next they want it to be a media hub. They have to decide what they want it to be and who they want to target it at. The gaming crowd is very different than the crowd of tech gurus who want and can afford such a media hub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mufdvr3669 Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 This is about as stupid as releasing a $450 Ultimate Operating System or a $650 Ultimate Office Suite. Gosh, I really wish Sony wasn't the only stupid, money hungry company in the world. </sarcasm> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
