    The French simply do not like to spend money and in this case I agree with them. The PS3 in Europe is a rip off.

    Wait a few months and watch the price drop.

    2 or 3 years would be the more sensible wait i reckon

    let the kinks be ironed out, the price come down, and the devs get to grips with the machine

    Allegedly, the WII is the only current generation console that ISN'T doing poorly in mainland Europe.

    "Soon after that a small military boat flanked with “Xbox loves you” messages appears, carrying a group of Microsoft employees who defy “the enemy”. The world around them laughs but not the Sony employees. "

    That's retarded (especially cos the 360 didn't do so hot in France either).

    It's still funny though :p
