I can get a Blu-Ray combo drive for it for under $200 US. 686767@blogcritics.org Thu, 10 Jan 2008 12:57:01 EST Comment by Tan The Man on It's Sooner Rather Than Later in the High-Def DVD Format War http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/01/09/094102.php#comment-686540 I agree. But Sony did help themselves a lot with its price drop. The original sticker price was ridiculous. 686540@blogcritics.org Wed, 9 Jan 2008 16:42:29 EST Comment by David on It's Sooner Rather Than Later in the High-Def DVD Format War http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/01/09/094102.php#comment-686430 I disagree with your opinions about the PS3. It has now sold just under 9m units worldwide and actually reached the 8m mark faster than the Xbox 360 did. At lot of Americans seem to have a very skewed view of the next gen console war because the Xbox 360 is very popular in the States while in Japan and PAL regions it is currently the worst selling console. To put things into perspective for you take a look at the worldwide console sales for week ending December 29th; Nintendo DS - 1,163,338 Nintendo Wii - 746,037 Sony PSP - 507,419 Sony PS3 - 392,729 Sony PS2 - 374,479 Xbox 360 - 347,877 Remember this is at a time when the 360 is quite cheap compared to the PS3 and has a far better library of games. 686430@blogcritics.org Wed, 9 Jan 2008 10:35:19 EST
