By the way, the BASIC PS3 is launching in the UK for about £550-£600. So, well, the 360 is still a lot cheaper. Just to annoy a lot of you - BUY THE WII!mavrick 3399 wrote:
microsoft has just released the price of its HD DRIVE for the 360 it cost £200, many people will have to buy this drive to play games like the new halo and so on.
that means that the current uk 360 price is £280 (full machine) + the HD drive = £480
which is £35 more expensive than the full version of the PS3 which will retail at £445 in march. (in europe)
microsoft do seem to be dropping there prices but from what i have seen on various websites its only the core machine which is having a price drop.
please give your thoughts on this, will this keep you away from buying a 360?
any 360 owners pissed off that they have to folk out another £200 to be able to play certain games?
just so people know i am a 360 owner. EDIT!

I think its the fact that UK shops are going to rip us off by selling them with game bundles and only the premium PS3 (with the bigger hard drive)Rygar wrote:

Last sony statement I read said 425 UK for the premium.
Could be, but Dark Raven is always trying to make a Nintendo fan out of everyone, so it's best to disbelieve him until provenbuLLet_t00th wrote:

Have a look at play.com.....they only have the £550 one and I haven't looked at amazon but those two are the biggest online retailers.Rygar wrote:

You have to read every post......hes only saying the xbox360 will be more expensive in the UK if the HD DVD drive is £200. Which it might not be anyway.....who knows whats going on???Whodofart wrote:
The prices being posted here. What currency is that? Is it pounds or Euros? If either, what does that equal in US dollars.
Some earlier posts said the price for the PS3 was not announced in the U.S. This is not true. I work at a game retail store and tell at least one person every time i work what the price will be. The U.S. price for the PS3 will be $500 and $600. Yes, they are doing the same concept that Microsoft did, sell a premium and stripped version. As of right now the only difference between the two are one system comes with a 20G hard drive and the other comes with a 60G hard drive. Also, the better version has blue-tooth which will allow for wireless connection between the system and a PSP (for those who actually have one).
I have not heard of the 360 being more expensive than the PS3. In the U.S., i know the price has not moved since its debute last year. I highly doubt Microsoft will increase the price, but more decrease the price to compete with the debute of the PS3.
My personnel opinion, I believe Nintendo's new system the Wii will win the legendary console wars this year. Nintendo has a new innovative way to play video games besides from just working your thumbs. The price is right selling at $250. Also, one its biggest selling factors is it will allow owners to download the old nintendo games from NES, SNES, N64, also nintendo got the rights to Sega so that also includes the Sega Genisis and possibly the other games from sega's consoles.
wait one sec if you play your 360 through component cables in to the back of HDTV are you getting it in HD or normal?????Rygar wrote:
That must be it. My brother just got one (a 360) two days ago and his TV has component video hookups, but isn't HD (like mine). The HD cable that comes with the 360 plays it fine in non-HD video, although I haven't seen it.
You turn on the settings on your 360 console and it will be in HD. But you can apparently use the cables with non-HD tvs (TVs with component video type hookups, but aren't HD) and turn the settings for HD off on the 360.mavrick 3399 wrote:
