You guys can't really think SONY's stuff is that over priced? And it's not priced by ego, it's priced by quality. I do hear alot about breaking Playstation's but I've never had problems. I remember getting pissed at some dudes at a Gamestop when they were telling some peeps buying a new PS2 that they should only play it and hour at a time or it would overheat. That's bull! I fall asleep with mine on, I once left GTA on for six days and my house is still standing. God I hate gamestop employees!
Sounds like they're no different than Best Buy. The girl trying to sell the extended warranty was telling me the same thing about overheating when I bought my PS2 (slimline version) back in January.
What really annoys me now is that all of them are trying to sell you a "protection plan" for 1 year on every single game purchase! Why should I pay another $3-5 bucks for a new game!!!
