Sony Losing On Each PS3

[PV5150]

Apparently Sony is taking a considerable loss of more than $240 per unit on each PlayStation 3 video gaming console. Desperate measures in a bid to catch up with XBOX 360's market lead it seems! Care to comment? Feel free to do so below...

Aye I knew they would do, but they'll make it up in licences and game sales (and peripherals)

Apparently they may break even in 2008!

yea i read about this quite a while ago, seems a good deal for consumers though, get something for cheaper than its worth

im amazed they are selling for > $2000 on ebay if I could pick one up for 600 bucks here and sell it on ebay, i'd make a fair bit of cash

I can't wait for all three to be easily accessible - maybe someone could compare them

The Wii is incomparable to the other two tbh, it's an overclocked GameCube, its the fun offered by the wii-mote which is what people are after.

The other two are comparable though .

These revisions of the ps3, including the ones in the shops on the 16th (US), are very cheap blueray readers. (to the average person)

The revision being released 1Q 2007 is allegedly going to be ps2 legal where the present revision fails atm.
