Product-Reviews writes: If the system can indeed manage to churn out games of PS3 quality, then Sony are obviously going to command a very high price for it – so don’t be surprised if the PSP 2 ends up more expensive than the current price for a PS3 console – $299.99 at least.
Who cares! Im glad Sony doesnt cater to the typical soccer mom casual gamer type crowd. Im glad they always deliver to their core, tech savvy early adopting crowd.
if not for Sony we would still be playing on a console that claims to be next gen but still uses DVD format and charges to just simply play online games (not going to mention any names)
If sony prices this at $300 or even $350, i say bring it on! Ill get it on day 1. Just like when i bought the PS3 at midnight for $600.00 and just like how i paid $500.00 for the original iphone in 07, and i dont regret either purchase whatsoever.
well lets see how much of a hit sony can take if it offers the psp2 at a more affordable price even if it means selling it at a loss. this was the same strategy with the ps3, and the reason why that was very expensive was blu ray. most reports of the psp2 say that it will most likely use the conventional flash stored media so the price might not be as bad as we think.
lets say the psp2 cost around 400 to make, then they should sell it at 300 and try to make up for the costs with software revenue. plus sony has taken a bigger hit with ps3 so we do know that this is possible.
the price is probably the biggest barrier between beating the 3ds or not and if they stay within $50 of the 3ds, they can easily advertise how many more features it has that makes that difference
LOL.
Playstation 3 Portable.
If they ain't too careful, it'll eat some chunk of 360 and ps3 customers depending on what the PSP2 really does.
..Most likely "un-dumbed down -core" gaming on the go.
the only thing i fear is development time and budget for games if the psp2 is as powerful as a ps3
cuz they already hesitate to develop games on consoles let alone a handheld
no one will throw that much money and time on a handheld game
NO ONE I TELLS YA *except Sony of course*
More worrying about nothing. I can't believe people write things like this. At least wait for Sony to announce the price before attacking them for it being too expensive.
