People are always criticising how the Sony PlayStation 3 is so expensive and that no one can afford it. I happen to be one that thinks the PS3 is too expensive and prices need to be lowered not by $100 but $200 or more to compete with the Xbox 360 or Nintendo Wii. The PS3 is the least sold console in the world today. The Nintendo Wii is the leading next generation console sold at over 10 million copies. Mostly thanks to Japan.
People don’t understand that Sony to charge the outrageous Price of $500 and $600 for their console. The technology they put into the system including the blu-ray function cost them so much that they should be pricing the PlayStation 3 at over $1,000 and not $600. But they are not dumb, and they know that they have to charge a certain amount to pay for the products and services. So stop criticising Sony about making the PS3 too expensive. They have no choise, unless they take out the blu-ray.

As you all know of the famous Band Metallica. They are at it again. This time they have sued Harmonix, Activision, and Red Octane for using one of their songs for their new video game Guitar Hero III.
Guitar Hero is a great game that appeals to everyone of all ages. And they decided to put a lawsuit against all three companies responsible for the game. This version of Guitar Hero was due to come out for all three next gen consoles, the Xbox 360, the Nintendo Wii, and the Playstation 3.
Harmonix paid a licensing fee for that ONE song of Metallica that’s why people are confused on why Metallica would turn around and sue them all.
Metallica’s excuse was that they are afraid that their record sales would go down because their fans and consumers would easily get a hold of their “music” from purchasing a video game. COME ON!!! It’s one song and Metallica hasn’t made any albums in years. They always try to get more and more money by suing one company after another.
How low can Metallica Sink? That story just made me mad when I first heard it. What was your reaction?
