FreakyLA : PSX2 will be about $200-$250 this June-July maybe only by August, but it is coming. With XBOX and Gamecube coming the competition will be fierce for gamers money. A price drop and a major sale of more PSX2 is coming, they want to get as large a user base as possible before the other gaming machines get out to the consumer. Look for 400-450 Marks soon.
You are not missing too much yet. But the PSX2 does have great games coming. So by the time they do arrive you will get a PSX2 for about half of what it is now, give or take a bit. Trust me this will happen soon. Just be a little patient for a while longer. Maybe a nice price drop announcement at E3, I would bet on it.
XBOX will be about $250, I believe because of the PSX2 and Gamecube prices. They will lose about $125 on every XBOX. I believe XBOX cannot afford to go to $300, it would be too much above the competition. Gamecube will be $200, maybe $179.
As of now the up-coming games with the most muscle on PSX2 are MGS2; FFX; Devil may cry; Run like Hell; and of course GT3. But believe it or not there are three games coming that are not well known "YET",that I am actually hotter for, they are Herdy Gerdy; Ico from Sony; and Saffire, all 3D ACT/ ADV games coming this Fall. You will here of them soon, I have play tested all of them, no doubt they are sure fire hits.
All three systems are great, to have them all will assure you of playing only the best of the best. I suggest you get PSX2 this summer when the price drops. Then in Fall get an American XBOX, MO cannot be put on hold. By having two systems you can then hold off on Gamecube until March of 2002. And yes Gamecube will be sweet, you will see soon. This way you can spread your money out, instead of spending it all at once. Anyway just be patient and you will be playing all the great games soon, good luck.
