My thoughts exactly. I paid almost that much to get a brand new video card upgrade for my PC. As time goes on it seems like console gaming keeps getting closer to the power of PC gaming and so I expect the price will too.

For now PCs will have constant made available to them which will let them stay ahead. Consoles start out strong and over the years drop in performance compared to PCs. Upgrades to consoles as far as hardware have not been successful in the past and probably won't any time soon.

Not one but two FF13 titles being developed for the PS3 has me looking forward to the system. It's hard to say if their online system will match up to Xbox Live which I like a lot about the 360.

Have they said what the prices, if any, will be for that? I'm debating whether to get the PS3, but it would sway me to buy it if they gave the PS1 games at no extra cost. Or at least if they do charge for them they should throw in a certain amount of PS1 titles for download free. Eitherway, the idea itself being able to download games instead of going out to buy them is good thinking.
They just mentioned it while talking about downloadable content. My guess is a price like Xbox Live arcade games but I dunno. Since its for the PSP and you copy the games to memory card it's hard to think you won't see downloadable versions floating around on the net too.

SF2 for Xbox Live arcade coming out soon with old school tournaments to play. Should be fun =)
