Posted March 23, 2007 Went into HMV today looking for PC games, and they had a PS3 on display on a beautiful TV. The PS3 is unbelievably big, it almost looks threatening. But i really want the TV it was on. There didn't seem to be anyone buying one when i went in, either and they were still in stock by the look of it. But that's just a guess.

Posted March 23, 2007 I would buy a PS3, I was really tempted this morning walking past Virgin Megastore, buy I find it insulting that Sony would release a cheaper console than America, 5 months later aswell, and charge us about £100 more...It really makes my blood boil!

Posted March 23, 2007 Erm, its the same with any consoles, its Tax. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 23, 2007 Erm, its the same with any consoles, its Tax. You can't tell me that the extra £100 for a cheaper version of the PS3 is the 17.5% Import Tax? It simply doesn't add up... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 23, 2007 My local Argos got given 30 PS3's and have 18 left.... Really surprising figure tbh, although i'd expect em to be all gone by tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 23, 2007 Thats considerably more left in stock than any shop near me had for either the 360 or the Wii, though... Erm is that becuase Sony actully gave enough units? How many 360's did they have in, 8 or something? Anyways thats IT. No more sticking up for Sony from me, if people are dim enough and cant work things out themselfs thats there problem Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 23, 2007 LOl Fair play Caris. It's good to see the full extent of teh PS3's power actually being used for something(Folding @home) and Im glad that its somthing worthwhile. if they can harness all of that power for games we could trully be in for something special.
