Playstation 3

Every generation of consoles have one thing in common: They always claim that the system will sell for 500 dollars when it comes out. They said that about the PS2, and it came out for 300 if you bought it at the store (which was difficult at first). They can say it will be 500 dollars all they want, they just make that claim so they have room to work with in case it gets more expensive than they ACTUALLY assume it will be, and they won't be pissing people off. They would much rather say it will cost 500, then actually sell it for 300-400 when it comes out, than say it will cost 300-400 and it come out at 500.
