Gamers give Sony PlayStation 3 rave reviews
Crammed in the corner of a hotel’s banquet hall, they stood and stared silently, mesmerized by what they were seeing. They were watching a soldier gunning down a giant monster on one TV and Miami Heat’s Dwayne Wade taking over an NBA game on the other screen. What they were really experiencing was the new Sony PlayStation 3 and they seemed to love it.
Thousands of lucky gamers tested the PS3 over the weekend at the 2007 Sony Expo in Honolulu, two weeks before the debut. The system starts at $500 for a 20 GB version. The price tag on the 60 GB model is $600. People looking to cash in on the high demand and limited supply are already selling their pre-reserved PS3 consoles on eBay for well over $2,000. Rights to one PS3 recently sold for $3,250, plus $50 for shipping. It received 48 bids.
