actually economicly no, its not, Microsoft is makeing 300% profit per system. They aparently dont teach supply and demand well anymore. * microsoft X-box* president stated PUBLICALLY that the reason they cost so much, is because people are willing to pay that much, he went on to say that if the public would willingly spend $5,000 for on they would price it that high, again because people would pay. He did also state that over all to make a good profit the X-box 360 could sell for as low $75.00 and they would still make the projected 7.5 billion in a fiscal period.. meaning.. If people said " I wont pay that much" they would drop the price in a second Sadly this is a thoughtless consumeristic world now, all sheep under the sign of matereal goods, and money and I do have a job, a damn good one, I earn about $275,000 a year, AFTER taxes I just refuse to pay that much for something that should only cost perhaps $ 100 tops. now, I MIGHT get the NON wireless version in a year or so perhaps reconditioned, or if it drops under 200 though I will get the Nintendo,, I WANT a 360 but will not if it stays that high.. and no chance in hell will I touch ANYTHING by sony I really want that Nintendo...SUPER MARIO BROS. AGAIN!!! ;D

Not cheap, smarter. see what Iput hun,, I personally find it dumb to spend that much for a " toy", for 400 bucks for a system that will be absolete in 3, 4 years.. I could do SOOO much more with it Yea well i dont work hard and get paid good lol so dont really matter to me i was just kiding any ways what people do with the money they work for is there bussinse not mine I know, I just think Its's Ironic how people bitch about price gouging, and how their government overspends,, yet they do the same thing

It is a fact of life that when people are willing to pay for somthing, companies will always up the price just a bit more.

wanna know what I did when I was to young for a job? chrismas time I would go out and get some wild missletoe(spelling?) and then put a ribbon around a twig of it, and sell it for like 2 bucks.
My family got its first tv, a trip to disneyland, the nintendo, loads of legos, and other stuff that I cant remember at the moment, but yeah that was how I made money when I was but a wee tike

kotor's story line was better than kotor 2's
but kotor 2's classes and characters were better and you could enteract with more things...so i think bioware should make it because i like story from kotor 1 it was amazing

Im going to be so fucking pissed if its on the 360, they SHOULD finish it off on the X-box, then start a new trilogy for the 360 That is what they are doing for the Tekken series! It is a smart move!
