Lazard Capital analyst Colin Sebastian believes a price cut for the PS3 is unlikely this year. He states that Sony management is focused on achieving profitability in the PlayStation division and that a PS3 price cut won't happen in the near term.

Sony expects to sell 10 million PS3s this year, doubling the global number of systems stationed on our little big planet. With the HD movie war in the bag and an increase in HD television adoption, it's not unreasonable to assume the PS3 being people's go-to movie player.

No Price Cut? They probably won't sell as many, or is it the opposite?
 
They better release FFXIII or KH3 if they want to sell that many. MGS alone isn't going to be enough to pull those kinds of numbers.

I do plan to get a PS3 for those games and I hope they remake FF7
 
QUOTE (Seaofclouds @ May 17, 2008 10:08 am) Same here. I won't get one until those games come out though...

Maybe there will be a FF or KH bundle.

I doubt it but if they announced a remake of FF7 for the PS3 then the PS3 will fly off the shelves faster then the Wii.
 
QUOTE (Seaofclouds @ May 17, 2008 11:20 am) Yes it would. I don't get the whole allure of a FF7 remake, but I know a lot of people that would like it.
so far FF7 was the greatest FF game ever made. the story line is awesome, the villains are legendary, kick @$$ magic, lot's of great side quests and the graphics of the game was best of it's time. and if they take this to the PS3 the game can become much greater.
 
QUOTE (Seaofclouds @ May 17, 2008 12:19 pm) I am just afraid that they would ruin it with a remake.

I have that fear as well and every one else that wants it but if they do it, it will be with the original team and I'm sure they would use peoples input.
