Wow. Whoever wrote that source article needs an editor.

I believe the original article is here: http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601101&sid=aLi3FF13LuVI&refer=japan
Bloomberg appears to actually employ copy editors.

I agree with that article. The only thing stopping me from picking up a PS3 is the price. Otherwise, I’d be fragging my buddies in Killzone and WarHawk all day long.

offtopic, but you might be interested in this, via joystiq:
Low-cost games aren’t the ones sitting in the Wii rack at your local retailer. Even a Wii game needs to sell at least one million units to be profitable, by Reggie Fils-Aime’s estimates. (And Only 16 out of 486 Wii games have crossed that threshold as of March 1, by NPD estimates.)
also, i keep thinking i’m going to start an email message to moore if i click his name.
