[QUOTE="Laetca, post: 177755"] This weeks PS3 sales have increased over last weeks already increased sales by 75%. Market analyists are saying that this year will be the year that non-hardcore gamers will buy into the next-gen consoles and one of their deciding factors will be the value-added prospect of the PS3 including the confirmed new next-gen HD format. Where the PS2 included dvd and it was the cheapest way for many to own a dvd player for a while, so it also goes with the new blu ray format. One of the problems though is that it felt like a console with a dvd player interface which was more of a secondary feature. For any who wonder, the PS3 is set up in a way that in can be simply used as a home multimedia centre and it looks and works in a way befitting that purpose. Some buyers are using it for those uses only. [b]Later this year it will also become a home digital video recorder for those who want to record television shows onto it and watch them later. [/b] I'm already upgrading my HDD for that purpose. [/b][/quote] We have that feature in the 'digibox' that enables us to get cable television. I never had complaints about the DVDplayer that was in the Playstation, even though I heard the Xbox had better DVD graphics. Checked prices, PS3 is still far out of my reach, not having a job, but it seems worth it, especially when the new FF comes out (still considering doing the most geeky thing ever and buy the guide, it's so pretty and useful xD). How much would prices fall? I'm not sure what they did with the PS2, right now it's being sold for about 130-150€ here (the PS2, often with extra controller and memorycard), I'm not sure what they cost when they were brand new. Does anyone remember? [/QUOTE]
