Just wait another couple to many months and you should be able to buy your PS3, there are being delayed for good reason. When they are spending near $1000 a console versus Xbox's $550, you have to.
I don't want to break the PS3 fans hopes, and I myself am not a console lover/fanboy of any kind (I am very objective), your are only lying to yourself if you think the 360 sucks and the PS3 will just dominate. Idealistic views will do that; you have to be realist. The 360 was thought to just be awesome, then you guys heard of heating issues, which are over exaggerated already, and now we come to the PS3 launch and what a de javu.
I'm not saying it will be just like it, but I will predict the PS3 will have its faults. With a price per unit almost doubling that of the Xbox360, Sony will either have to get rid of features or cut corners, something Microsoft did with the 360, get rid of features. I think the 360 is a great system, it is quite solid at a decent price, the PS3 will, I'm sure, do the same but probably have to come up with quite a skeem to pull off to make up the money they lost on the console. Either they will have higher prices, which I already imagine, because those fed up with the 360 will be willing to pay a price for a quality system, and/or they will have to develope a lot or some very interesting add ons like those universal remotes. I see them doing something really creative with their online use, most likely charging a fee.
The only thing that has gone through the wall is that they have had to delay the launch, I've heard earliest is August. This will be bad as some of the anti-360 people will be raving for many months, possibly go with the 360, not like it because they already taught themselves not to like it, try to get rid of it.
I also think though that the PS3 will have something much more next gen than the 360, if there postponing then launch, I would be willing to bet that they will get all of the people who are waiting until next Christmas to actually get a console. It won't be another 4 years until PS3 will have any competition. But they also will have to make sure they don't lose too many faithful console go getters between now and their launch. I think that this delayed launch will actually be much better for Sony, they will be able to think this through and properly react to the 360.
Too bad for me I use a PC, though I use it more like a console when gaming because I like the controller, helps with Halo 2 practice, and also the 10' screen I play on
.
Now I laid out two scenarios, one with a advantageous longer delay, and one with a shorter troublesome delay. I think Sony will choose the prior, and might be forced to, because some of the thing they need to do to achieve the latter may be nearly impossible, practically at least. Those that are sticking with a PC, just make sure you know why actually think it through, because once you do, you save money, you just have to know how
. I hate how some people compare the PC and console, not the fact that they are being complete morons, but because they never are objective. They always give the fewest amount of details, maybe one figure for numbers, and thats it. Once you actually financially figure it out, I will decide to listen to the rest of your arguement, hopefully it will prove a point.
