Thats why I bought a 360.
well as wezzer said "suck fony"

but on the other hand, what would you prefer?
£50 of the consol or £115 worth of games and controlers?

QuoteIn the UK, the PlayStation 3 remains £125 more expensive than the equivalent Xbox 360 bundle of console and games and £225 more expensive than the Nintendo Wii with two games.

There is no price cut, the 60 gig version is being phased out and basically sold off, the 80 gig version will be the norm so basically Americans are getting 20 more gig for their buck and not really a price cut if you have the "current" model

Bad move IMO - I love my Wii I really do (more than most Wii owners) - but it doesnt hold a candle to my 360. The 360 has had some issues sure (which MS are finally sorting out thank god) but its still the greatest console Ive ever played on.
