- CNet have tried their hand at pricing the components that will appear in the PS3.
- They compare this to an Xbox 360 and things do not look good for Sony.
- While the price of most things like memory will be the same, the Blu-Ray drive and Cell processor send the cost sky high. This will reduce over time, but the damage will be done early on.
- Microsoft are making the losses they are incurring on their consoles, (around $100,) by selling the peripherals at a high cost, (around 75% profit on a $50 wireless controller.) There are also the development license fees, (even for making third party peripherals.) Will Sony do the same?
