Some people may argue but it is the end of Sony as we know it.
Can they really make a come back from this disaster?
Only time will tell but I am sure that it will take a couple of years to really reveal the extent of the damage.

It's way too expensive. Of course no-one's buying them. If you're tech-savvy you're put off by the blu-ray gamble, the DRM and HDCP, or already have some next gen kit as seperates. If you're NOT tech savvy you gasp at the price!
The PS3 is so far a disaster for Sony, the fact that there are low levels of pre orders and no people fighting to get them really underlines how bad things are!! Maybe in a year's time, with at least $200 off the price and some decent games they might start shifting.

I always thought that the bumped up prices on ebay acted as one of the most effective marketing tools for a new console! Silly Sony imho.

And with all the recent lawsuits against eBay maybe consumers aren't taking a chance buying from an unknown seller without any financial guarantees and they are purchasing from outlets that will back the transaction without any risk.

A typical comment from a sony fan. Sure the graphics are stunning but it's the same old games, just better looking. Nintendo have widened the gaming audience so much so that most people want something fun and inventive and not a polished up rehash. You only have to look at the PSP, it's been trounced by a technically inferior machine in the DS because many peole now prefer a more tactile approach to gaming and not a jack of all trades, master of none machine. The PS3 is the Suburu of gaming, overpriced and appealing mostly to people who want to appear flash and can't see flash graphics doesn't make up for shallow content. Shame on you for bying one ha ha ha

I can honestly say, as an owner of all three consoles, I regret buying the PS3. As a long time Sony fan, I had presumed that the Playstation would deliver a far superior experience, but thus far, I'm underwhelmed. Sure the games look nice running in 1080, and while they obviously look better than the Wii, there's not a lot to set them apart from the Xbox. It's early days yet - but I can't help but feel Sony need to get something really spectacular to market if they don't want this console to be sidelined by the Wii - It's the real star for me.
