- I was going to download this until the crazy motherfuckers made me download a bogus zipfile containing an executable (!) directing me to the correct download site. This really is ridiculous.

Changes in Current Version:
The PS2 was launched in November 2000. The Xbox came out in November 2001.
"Given a need to increase its installed base and a lack of exclusive key titles to help do so, we expect Microsoft could use this opportunity to pre-empt Sony and take a leadership position in dropping the price of Xbox," he said.
The Xbox, after selling nearly 1.5 million units in the last six weeks of 2001, sold between 300,000 and 400,000 units in the first quarter of this year, according to various analysts' estimates, and a consensus has developed in recent weeks that the price of the Xbox will be cut this year.
Rumors have repeatedly cropped up since last summer that a PS2 price cut was imminent, and analysts are still generally divided as to whether Sony might cut the price at E3, or in September, at the start of the strong fall and winter season.
"However, the recent slowdown in hardware unit momentum, coupled with the competitive threat of Xbox at a lower price, makes a price cut on the PS2 more likely, in our view," Williams said.
Even so, a price cut was not entirely necessary for Sony, he said.
"Given this enormous market share -- and apparent demand for the product -- the company does not necessarily need to cut the price of the hardware, especially when you consider that the company has experienced weakness in some of its other businesses -- making the profit derived from PlayStation that much more important," he said.
Williams also said he expects the price of Sony's older PlayStation One console to be cut to $79 from $99.
As for Nintendo Co. Ltd.'s GameCube, which came out three days after the Xbox at a price of $199, Williams said a price cut at E3 was unlikely, though a cut to $149 is possible this fall as Nintendo releases a number of anticipated game titles.
