Just like the 360 will be when it comes out. The price is lower due to sheer competition and an increase in customer expectations.

Exactly my opinion. That, and all these new functions are sort of "useless" compared to what we already have...
DVD player, we have like 3 per household..HD video is nothing huge...etc..
however back in the day, having the control to move a little red and white character on the screen and kill turtles was huge! My grandfather bought one when it came out and was blown away.
Now its like "meh...the games'll just be a little more visually stunning"
