    When the price reduction occurs, you'll be able to get it for $499CDN w/o MotorStorm. You're probably not going to see another price drop before FFXIII is out, or before they solve more yield problems etc. That too, would only occur if the competition cuts prices. If I personally were looking for a nextgen system right now I'd jump for the PS3, the Bluray player you get with it is great value. Also, when everybody starts learning to code for the Cell, it'd have huge flexibility to running useful apps due to having Linux, and then factor in the full capabilites of the processor. -innocent2

    I have to commend Sony here, this is a really aggressive move. That is more so, if they aren't providing false info. with regards to only solving the blue diode problems as of recently.

    Oh, and for more Sony announcements:
    This will probably help them recuperate so money lost by the PS3. The PS2 is still selling quite well, and this probably being its last refresh, it'll have an even more amazing retirement with a hard to beat legacy.

    I disagree about the blue ray player. I wouldn't buy any next gen system based on HD DVD and blue ray. At least not yet.

    and to bad Square Enix won't be make a 360 version of FF13 :(

    Of course when you only look at it as a gaming system that would be the perspective. But, if you were to be switching to HD movies as of *now*, there's really no better option. If you are buying only for gaming that is *now*, then yes, the Xbox360 and Wii both respectively have much polished features relative to the PS3. Sony also demonstrated they're commitment to their customers as of late, promising to immerse them with content from the upcoming E3 through the PLAYSTATION Network. If they really improve their online services, and survive until all the big launches, I think they'll succeed once again.

    Wait this fall. That's when PS3 owners start getting their money's worth.
