The editor of the Official PlayStation Magazine wants a Xbox 360

The Managing Editor of the “Official” PlayStation Magazine, Dana Jongewaard writes in her blog:

It’s not that I find the concept of a $600 console insulting. Inflation happens, and it’s natural that eventually inital prices will be higher than they used to be. But when I know that a console’s direct competitors cost two-thirds or half of that price, it becomes harder for me to justify shelling out that kind of money–especially when I can probably get the Wii and the 360 combined for the cost of a PS3.

[...]

So ultimately, I can’t justify it. $600 is a lot of money, especially when I can get what–for me at least–will be a very similar experience for $400. I would like to own a PS3, and I hope that the price drops soon so I can consider it. But until then, this Official PlayStation Magazine editor will have to join the dark side

How about that? I’m thinking the same, but I have never thought that the editor of the official PS magazine did so too… not publicly anyway.
