Thoughts from the other side

No wireless. Worse controller than a Wii. $500. Lame !

So, I don't want my place in prognostication history like CmdrTaco did with
his famous predicament, but I still
get the feeling that the PS3 isn't all it's hyped up to be. Or maybe the
trouble is something else… it tries to be too many things to too many
people and this has sent the cost soaring through the roof.
