$299?
120GB HD?
All the same features as the current 2 port models?

Nice work, took long enough. I expected it though after they found ways to get production costs to an all time low.

its officially cheaper than a 360 for once(a fully featured 120 gb HD 360 is $400). I wonder if all those sitting on the fence(theres still alot of people who dont own either system) make a decision?

I'm thinking about it. I played the hell outa PS1, used the PS2 for about a year when it was still hot, then just switched to retro games.

Honestly, it's the price of games that keeps me out of the current generation.

It's pretty much equal price point now. Elite vs the PS3 Slim at $299 each. The question now becomes which is the better value.

Just buy one, beat it relatively soon, and trade it in at Gamestop for about 25 bucks of store credit, buy a new game, repeat. I don't think I've paid full price for a video game in about 5 years.
