Did you see at TGS they announced that PS3 is going to be $70 less there. Too bad that won't happen for the US casue you know people will pay whatever expensive price for a PS3.

The remenents look like it could be good but that isn't till next year probably.

[thelegendarycravy]

Yeah but I bet low-end PS3 here will have HDMI output o_o-b even though im getting high end Q_Q But the Wii should be win with Twilight Princess, although if anyone gets a chance you should play Okami.

[Halon50]

Speaking as an insider, the US version of the PS3 is a HUGE motherfucker, bigger and heavier than the original PS2 console, but good god it's loaded with shit. And there's no 150lb external power brick like what the Xbox360 has (the power converter is internal to the PS3).

Details here. (http://www.us.playstation.com/PS3/about.html)

Right now I have to say, the graphics and gameplay are on par with the best PC gaming system money can buy today, but for like 10% of the price. Of course the drawback is, you can't run MS Word and play Weird Al videos (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4581508829597815922) on it, but who the f cares, you have a cheap $250 computer to do that!

[Zumi]

Actually you could play Weird Al videos on it since it got a built in web browser.

i love zumi
