Wouldn't be at all suprised, im amazed the guy said it cant be offered for a price that'll be targeted for households. Im assuming all this research and development for the cell cpu cost them big time so the console is priced to get that cash back as quickly as possible, even though a dual core p4 would have done a better job.

does Nintendo even have a new console coming out? or did they concede defeat?

[Chronic Diarrhea]

I only use my PS2 for football games. I'd rather play an FPS on the comp anyday over consoles.
