    He probably gets paid to do this, for a magazine, lol, that's just my opinion though, if he did it to all 3 next-gens, he must get paid to do it, ya?

    either that or he has too much money and he doesnt know what to do with it. also, this topic basically turned into our private chat about random ps3 related stuff.

    I think it has to do with something with the US dollar going up(or down?) I don't know, but the price went from $659 Canadian for the 60GB model, to $700 even, before tax, Canadian, for the 60GB model

    I'm not sure, but I saw this in stores, so it was legit, wasn't some online rumor, Zeller's and Wal-Mart went up $50 and Futureshop went up $60

    On paper, the PS3's statistics are the most powerful out of the 3 Next-Gens, but as the_skip said, it will never be used to it's 100% full-power, designers are having a rough enough time using the system as is.
