By the time you see this post, you'll probably already know all about this news. by Jerry Whorebach 11/17/2006, 3:55am PST PS3 painfully underpriced, says NASDAQ investor's version of GameFAQs. Apparently the PS3 motherboard, CPU, GPU and memory alone (not even factoring in Blue Ray, hard drive, wireless, etc.) cost Sony about $175 more than the entire 360 system costs MS. So either the Cell is so incredibly advanced that no hugh-man game designer can take advantage of it or Sony got shafted by not buying their components off-the-shelf. Personally, I think you'd have to be stupid rich or just plain stupid to pay $300+ for a child's make-believe tapedeck. Lucky for me Pepsi was giving the fuckers away so I can still get my Viva Pinata on.
