Duh. Prices drop. PS2 was HOW MUCH when it came out? £350 was it? And then £30 for a memory card? HA!
So yeah it will be expensive, but they WILL drop sooner or later.
yeah but i don't wanna wait till the prices drop. :icon23:
Then trade your old shit in then?

im not sure about the wireless controller thing.
i dont mind wires, and batteries are teh suck. unless they can hold out for over 18 hrs and they come with a recharger or summat, its not for me.
also, my consoles are next to me, not in front of me. i hope that doesnt jam the signal like most wireless things tend to do

How the fuck is that box supposed to have a couple of 2+ GHz G5s in it? It'd start out that shape and end up a sort of fried egg shape...

As I have said before. Wavebird will show you the way.
Its battery life lasts for... DADAAAA! 100 HOURS BEFORE REPLACEMENT IS NEEDED.
And trust me, 100 hours is a fucking long time kids.

I'm looking forward to it, wireless controllers would be nice, less clutter, more power to you.

Apparently these new processors are designed for low power consumption. Less wattage - less heat. They're pretty specialized, which the G5 isn't. I guess the same goes for ATI's gfx chips.
