You know though, 60 bucks for games isn't too bad. I had a Sega Genesis and I remember purchasing Imported Video games that were averaging 70 bucks a game. I remember paying 100 bucks for a batman game. Also, remember laser disks? Remember just how expensive they were? The average price for a laser disk was 70 bucks and the cheap ones were 40 bucks. (Laser disks, for those that might be too young to remember, were about 12 inches in diameter and it usually took both sides of a disk to get an entire movie on it. CAV format often took 2 disks) But the PS3 sounds like it will be quite impressive.
