But yeah, this reaction is great. A bit surprisingly strong, actually... I mean, while Sony's presentation was desperate (tilt controller? Ah...), and Sony is soulless and evil, they did show a bunch of decent to good looking games... but I guess when the price is that high that doesn't really matter. :) I sure won't be getting one anytime soon...
Two things. One, game review sites have not yet commented on the price, like they are afraid to say anything bad about it.
Second, why are they charging a hundred dollars for a mere 40 extra gigs? Could it actually cost THAT much more?
