1 Million PS3 Shipped causes Playfuls.com to have a tanty

What were PS/1 owners saying about the introduction price of the PS/2?

I see three factors:

- King of the mountain/nouveau riche syndrome. This happened with laserdisc, and you see it with DVD. People with big collections and expensive players that they always brag about, are now second fiddle to people who got the new gen. How dare they challenge my reign these peasants with a little money.

- Worried about the quality or number of games as effort is redirected toward the next gen while they can only afford the current gen.

- People who bought into the PS/2 well below the introduction price who have sticker shock at the new price. The BD drive is an easy target. As you say, they are angry because they are so desperate to have a PS/3.
