>599 US dollar.
What was the big deal? Look at the amount of value you were getting at the time. Even if you were picking the 20GB model. which Xbox didn't even offer a 60GB model well until 2008.

And plus. You know every xbox that came out was gonna fucking go to shit (RROD). Microsoft knew those boxes were gonna be shit. They just knew that more than half of the people were not going to turn in there 3 year warranty.

Everything else was cheaper by a good margin. Also at the time Blu-Ray wasn't the definitive, it was still up in the air, so even though it was cheaper than Blu-Ray players at the time, nobody knew if it was gonna be HD DVD or Blu Gay.

Also going from PS2, a console with every fucking game, to an announcement with literally nothing didn't help.

Still for an extra hundred bucks you got a blue ray player that had support for HDMI, it HAD HDMI. it had HARDWAREbackwards compatibility no soft patch shit.

compatibility was not dependent on what Microsoft wants you to play.

It was retarded idea because Sony doesn't realize that the success of the PS2/PS1 was because it was cheaper then it's competition.

This is the first time i've seen someone trying to paint the PS3 as anything but a blunder after the PS4 release. Sing all the praises you want but you cant rewrite history.

I remember when my Mum picked up a PS2 and I was over the moon because it cost a thousand dollareedoos. Fuck NZ man. I don't remember what the PS3 was like at launch.

Are you underage? You do know that the tube sites were not even a thing back then. And the few sites that had them where a mere 30secs clips.

>amount of value

what value? what games did the fucking PS3 have in even the first three years it existed?

maybe if people bought the thing they would have the fan base to get devs to start deving for it.
It was you who kiled it.

Fun fact; the PS3 literally had no games until MGS4 came out. After MGS4 they slowly started getting more games and then it became a decent purchase.
