History To Repeat Itself With PS3?

Dr. Eggman writes to mention a 1up article looking at the way things were when the PS2 launched vs. next week's PlayStation 3 launch. The question: can history repeat itself? From the article: "PS2: Released one year after the lower priced Dreamcast, lauded for its great games, ease of development, and superior online service. PS3: Releasing one year after the lower priced Xbox 360, lauded for its great games, ease of development, and superior online service. PS2: Competition from Nintendo: A smaller, cheaper 'family friendly' console with a 'focus on gameplay.' PS3: Competition from Nintendo: A smaller, cheaper 'family friendly' console with a 'focus on gameplay.'" The article also looks at how things have changed for Sony since the last time around.

It played your PS2 games and only costed 300 dollars.

cost. Not costed, cost. It only cost 300 dollars. The past tense of cost is cost. Now, the past tense of costing is costed; costing is applying a cost to something, for instance deciding that it should cost a certain amount. Do not confuse this with pricing, which is to apply a price to something, as in, to affix the price tag with a pricing gun.
