XBox Update
Slashdot is also reporting the first official price point for the upcoming Xbox 360. $300 is, as I recall, right around what the first Xbox cost at launch (took me years to get one, so I could be wrong about that). This also makes it fully 1/3rd less expensive than the PS3 (well, less expensive than the price I found when I googled 'PS3 price' at any rate), which, coupled with Xbox 360's earlier launch, bodes ill indeed for Sony's console.
Meanwhile, this Halo 3 announcement made in May completely got by me. A spring launch is very tasty news indeed, and as noted is yet another MS broadside into the PS3's ship.
Sony fans better hope the company doesn't fumble the PS3 release.
DAMMIT - that means I have to buy another video game system that I'll only play one game on. And then stop playing that game once I've managed to complete it and we've had our latest Halo-a-thon.
Speaking of Halo-a-thons, when's the next one? Not that we don't have tons of home improvements to do, but it'd be nice to get another one in...
