Yes, but don't the majority of gamers consist of pre-teen/teens?

This is crazy yes...but when you think about, its usually about a 1000$ bucks for a pc with enough graphical and other hardware capabilities to max ut most of the stuff is a minimal. SO what if you have the rest like MSN and web browsing. There bound to have something similar on the online thingamajig on that thing. Look at the PSP, you could use it like a MP3 player or IPod...even surf the net. The amount of stuff they actually put in these things is huge, not to mention, they need this part of their market to get bigger to pay for their losing battle in the other parts of the company, ie Televisions. They also, if I remember right, or it was another system, had to take out some major enhancers or something from the previous systems, in order to stay in peoples price ranges. They may be still be in the right range, eventually the price will fall, and it will lay somewhere in the 299$ to 399$ range within a year or two.

yeah right im gonna buy that... 500 dolars!! they've lost their minds... thats way im sticking to my pc, u can buy the pc version of the games and u have the same thing... but if u buy a console a better one will allways come to the market... event if it comes with like the best games in the world... Im not going to pay 500 bucks to play a game....

lol, there's still time to come to the dark side of the consoles. Buy the revolution. It'll be better, funner, and won't break your budget. Besides, there won't be any good games for the PS3 for a couple years anyways, why buy now?

Hmmm...For now I'll think I'll stick with my PS2 and my Gamecube...Although spoiled little brats get just about anything...And there are alot in America^.^

Many of you seem to think the price is insanely high.
Do you know how much the PS2 cost when it was first released where I live?

665.499 USD

Surprised?

Sonic has gotten crazier man! i can't afford that price, but i know that some people will actually buy it.
