PS3 will not ship with HDMI cables
The 60GB version of the PS3 coming out this fall will be HDMI cableless... yes, that's right.
Sony has been banking on the fact that their system is going to be visually stunning, despite the fact that the budget 20GB version lacks HDMI at all. But now, consumers who pick up the paycheck version of the console will be sad to find that they'll need to drive back out to Best Buy to grab (undoubtedly $20) new cables.
According to the official website "HDMI cable not included. Additional equipment may be required to use the HDMI connector."
For $600 this system better be able to eat my ass... and also perform every key system feature I expect directly out of the box. But apparently it's like a newborn baby, young, innocent, expensive, and requires additional cables to function properly. Yeah, so I don't know how the cables thing applies to babies, but I bet it does.... somehow.
As a cheery note, the PS2 price is being lowered in both Japan and Europe, so maybe us in the US will see a price drop on it. Buy the PS2 this Christmas, pick up Disgaea 2 and throw the extra $450 you would have spent on the PS3, the $20 for the HDMI cables and the $60 for a game into the toilet while tazering yourself in the grundle... Trust me, it's better this way, you'll thank me later.
