I can't wait... I played through the original 3 times, and I'm consider going back for a 4th, because I liked it that much... Well, the story anyway. The planet exploration and that god damned Mako... Not so much. Doesn't matter. One of the best games this generation, even with its quirks.

My easy solution for fixing the economy... Student loan bailout. Forgive all federal student loans. You'll have millions who have a lot of extra money to spend in the failing economy.

I forgot to mention... The Blu-Ray drive is necessary to include because without it, how will you be able to play the PS3's back catalog of games? Oh wait... You won't be able to, unless they make them available through the PlayStation Store. I can imagine it now, 3 days to download Uncharted or Resistance. No thanks.

I doubt that even by limiting the PS3 to no Blu-Ray playback would lower Sony's costs... I mean, the Blu-Ray drive is EXPENSIVE to begin with. Sony wanted to throw everything into the PS3 and they're realizing that it's wildly expensive to do so. That's not going to change in the short term. They're also realizing that some people just want to game and don't care about Blu-Ray, Wi-Fi, media center capabilities, etc... Sony is going to have to take another bite of shit sandwich to stay in the game this gen. Better to take a bite of the shit sandwich than have to eat the entire thing by folding, so a price cut soon is absolutely necessary.

Never underestimate the bandwidth of an SUV filled with Blu-Rays!

A black Bulova 96D10... Beautiful watch, 12 diamond face, but an E Ink watch would be awesome!

For the price I paid for my 19" wide screen LCD monitor, I wouldn't be surprised. I mean, it was cheaper than the no-name brand when I bought it. Looks nicer than many LCDs I've used, so I could care less.

If I win I'll buy an extra controller, XBL membersip, and maybe the HDDVD drive.

iTunes 7 killed my 20GB 4th Gen iPod (Photo). Anyone else have a problem with their 4th Gen Photo and iTunes 7???? I am irate.
