A report by analyst Compete has revealed that 73% of current-gen console owners believe the PS3 is too expensive.
The report, which was carried out during October, surveyed active current-gen console owners about the upcoming next-gen offerings. One startling revelation is that 48% of those thinking about buying a PS3 believe that the console will only cost $300, not the $499 and $599 price tags the two SKUs will retail for.
Once informed of the actual price, 60% thought that the price was too high. Including all the people surveyed, 73% felt that the PS3 price is too expensive.
Talking only to PS2 owners, 63% said they might buy a PS3. When asking Nintendo GameCube owners the same question about the Wii, only 39 percent said they were considering a purchase - an equal number of GameCube owners said they might buy a PS3. This is certainly a worrying percentage for Nintendo, especially given that Nintendo is considered to have the most loyal fan base of all the platform holders.

anonymous bob, Xbox? The only one to mention the xbox was you! Not a mention in my post towards the xbox? And you can back up the 60% comment with hard facts then? Didn't think so!
As for the other post, did you read the link, does the sky look blue in your world? Of course they will supply the world with free ones, just like apple do with their ipods! Oh and I don't need to pick one as I have two systems and wii on way:) Just pointing out the facts that none of the systems are perfect like the sony fanboys think, emotion engine anyone? Don't believe the hype and enjoy your gaming.

As for whoever said "blue ray will crash and burn" they need to realize that when they compared it to the needs of an hd tv, it was probably the most pathetic comparison ever. An xbox 360 and a PS3 both have increadibly high graphics, and those graphics are not limited to only hd tvs. The graphics a PS3 would produce would be top of the line, and could easily play at 98% potential, which blows every game system just about any person here owns, out of the water. Thanks to the Blue Light Laser, the cds which the games are on can hold more, making the blue light laser a helpful thing, without blue light laser cds and blue light laser readers, higher graphics wouldnt be possible because you couldnt have that much information on a disk, and you couldnt read that information even if you could.
The only think I can think to say, is dont be too quick to judge.
