If you want to get really cynical, there is another bill up for discussion in a few months or so, PCIP (Protect Children from Internet Pornographers), whatever doesnt pass in SOPA/PIPA can just get tacked onto PCIP, and anyone who dare oppose that bill will get called a pedophile and a child porn supporter.
Good luck with that land of the free thing guys
at launch, the gamecube was roughly 280 euros, and hardware wise is was beyond the PS2, and pretty close to the xbox in terms of performance. That same xbox was criticized heavily for its 480 euro pricetag, it took a pricedrop to 300 before it got any serious traction here.
A $200 pricetag is obviously unrealistic for a new console, but 600 like the ps3 is just not gonna float in todays economy.
