I just can’t get worked up about Sony’s new console. I own both of the previous incarnations, and I still spend about six hours or so with the PS2 every week, but for some reason, the PS3 doesn’t arouse much interest for me.
It could be the $600 (or more) price tag. Or the fact that games (of which there aren’t many at launch) are around $60 each (with rumors of higher prices in the future). Or the fact that there are already some serious backwards-compatibility issues already popping up.
I suppose the main thing is that slightly-better graphics and faster hardware just don’t cut it anymore.
