I still don’t want one.
They announced it at E3 today. Will this lead anyone to buy one?

Interesting. I think many people expected a bigger drop. Any news about PS2 and GC?
PS2 is at 180 now too.
I don’t think they ever actually admitted how much they were paying for the Xbox but estimates have been anywhere from $300 to $400. Let’s just hope they made this price drop with the confidence that they will cover the difference with upcoming killer games.
One estimate had every single Xbox owner buying 25 games (at 50 bucks a pop) in order for Microsoft to turn a profit.
I think the new ps2 is coming out in June, with tons of improvements & with the network adapter, I think, thats why the price drop?
Yes I read in USA Today that the revamped PS2 will sell for 199 and include the network adapter.
Apart from the adapter how is the new PS2 going to be improved? I haven’t really read anything about it.
They’ll probably add a bigger blue light to it.
Oh well. The Xbox price drop won’t be what encourages people to buy an Xbox… games like Fable, Halo 2, and Doom 3 will (in the case of the latter, it’ll be better to spend $179 to play the game instead of about $300-$400 for computer upgrades).
New ps2 should read +r dvd disks so you can watch your dvd+r s on it…
New PS2 will also have progressive scan DVD playback.
Hmm progressive scan doesn’t make any difference on regular TV’s, right? It’s probably not much use to me.
