....and crap backwards compatibility because Fony are money grabbing
cunts who not only charge more for their products in the UK, but
wanted to save the £6 chip cost that makes them work properly with
older titles - which they included in the hardware everywhere else but
here.

Comparative costs:

Electronic Boutique (US) $599.99 Sony PlayStation 3 60 Gig
Game (UK) £424.99 ($836.84)
Amazon (Japan) (JP) Y59,980 (£255.78)


Sounds rather like MS with Vista, which is double the price here compared to
the US.
