So really there was no price drop, just upgraded hard drives and no more PS3s with less capabilities. Even though it's not really like a price drop, I'm still happy that they did this. I find this in no way a move in the wrong direction.

How can it not be a price drop? Before you had to pay 600 bucks for the 6gb now you only have to pay 500. Sounds to me like a price drop. To me the new model its a waste of money. Only 20 mor gb and a game that in a few months will cost 19.99? But anyways im still happy sony did this.

$100 price drop for the 60gb model - Good.
(it would atleast stop those Americans from complaining to some extent... i don't really know why they are the ones who always complain when they're having it easy compaired to other teritories)
the 80gb model??? not necessary... borders on being a bad idea even.

I am one American that has never complained about what he spent to purchase his PS3! Still after they announce a price drop 4 months after after I spent my $600 + tax I have no regrets about my purchase.
I have no reason to feel bad about it. I felt totally secure about my decision to purchase an PS3 well before I went to the store to get it. I already knew that a was investing in a piece of equipment that was worth my money and then some.
Right now I think that this decision is a good one by Sony. They stand to lose even more money in the short term but in the long run installed base is more important and this will only give the PS3 a boost in sales.
Right now the only way that I would be sorry is if I had spent my money on another console and could have purchased a $500 PS3 instead. BD, streaming media over wifi, and great games for $500. You can't help but feel good about spending that much for what you will get with your purchase!

People this price drop in the 60GB is just what Sony needed. Its already been rumored that the 80GB PS3 will be shipping with a SixAxis Rumble controller. This explains all the delays in game developing for the PS3. GO FIGURE! Anyways, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOT Price Cut Baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope they have a trade in deal with the old controllers, I already think they are retards for not including rumble...how many times...the price should be 450 for the 60gb. I do appreciate the price cut, but that still too much.

» Thank God...
Thank God they're not bundling it with that Golf game like in Japan... ack.
Still, if Sony wanted to play their cards better, they should have shipped the 80Gig with 'Resistance:FoM' rather than Motorstorm. Not that Motorstorm is a bad game, but why not package the system with the most popular and highest rated title? It's probably sold a half-million copies already, so, financially, it'd also be the safest game to 'give away'.
Still, the only way I can 8!tch about this news is the fact that I got my new PS3 2 weeks ago...

» Gotta disagree
I dig R:FoM, but Shooters don't have such a widespread audience. Yeah, the audience is huge, but packing the PS3's with "M" rated games might be a double-edged sword (especially with what's going on in Congress). Packing an "M" rated game won't have the widespread appeal of a (somewhat) family-safer "T" game.
Plus, Motorstorm uses the SixAxis much better than Resistance does, so I imagine that's one point Sony wants to drive at consumers.
Either way, sorry to hear about the 2 week thing, but there's still the free 5 Blu-Ray movies you can cash out on:

Now you believe me? LOL
Sweet now PS3 gonna outsale the Wii. By the way, I bought a Wii to turn around and sale and ended up trying it out to see what the hype was about. I was not impressed in the least little bit. Very cumbersome controls and game play was awkward. It would take some getting used to for sure.
So for me, I am very dissapointed in Nintendo. It is only a fad right now and I believe in the next 2 years to come, Nintendo will fade away one again and the battle between XBox and PS3 will continue.
Good job Sony. A very good move.

Very pointless comment... it reminds me of the other people saying Wii was a fad back when it sold 2 million in a lonth... The Wii is not a fad, it could have been, but it is not. I would say that PS3 controls are more "cumbersome" than Wii controls, but what really makes that comment stupid is that you are insinuating that a console that costs 2x as much will suddenly sell much faster than the console reaching nearly 10 million... I like different aspects of each console...but I truly think the Wii will sell the most. This is not a fanboy opinion, but the opinion of an averge person.

1. You act as though the Wii has the graphical capabilities of a rock.
2. The Online Wii Games have yet to come out. Wait until Brawl comes out and then talk to me. And the Wii can use wireless G (or is it B?) straight out of the box.
3. Why would you expect a good storyline in a sports game, do you think before you type?
4. PS3 does not even compare. tilting it side to side is no where near the Wii. And you can be a lazy fatass and play the Wii.

Which world do you live in Buddy? As of this moment, yes, it would seem as if the 360 has won, but all you have to remember is, nothing is set in stone. Hell, 2 years ago, would you have thought that an SCEA product would be struggling at launch while the 360 enjoys unqualified, if undeserved, success?
So, enjoy your 360's transitory success, because nothing is permanent, neither the MS console, nor the Sony console and not the Nintendo console.

» Good for the Yanks, but...
Again, Europe gets *****ed and assraped by Sony. As always...
I know for sure that it's gonna be a long time before they sell those models here and they will never sell it at the precise price of €376 ($500). Sony should at least consider a special offer for the YEARS of delay for both the PSP and PS3. Even though Europe is rapidly becoming one of the biggest game markets in the world...
I still don't understand why Americans keep *****in on the Japanese (and sometimes on Europe when we happen to have ¡¡1!! fookin game earlier)...

» find a PS3?
ha! That's a challenge. Target last night had 6 of them and only one XBOX premium. I still can't find any elites in stores.
Even though I'm a game console collector with 2 PSPs, 2 PS2s, 1 Dreamcast, 1 N64, 1 SNES, 1 NES, 1 LYNX, 1 Virtual Boy, 1 Nintendo DS, 1 Turboexpress, 1 Sega Genesis, and an original Playstation I see no need for a PS3 even at $500.
I'd rather upgrade my TV and surround sound first, or get some more games for a successful console. Why wait 1-2 years for games that are supposed to be good, when the s*itty games out for it now were also supposed to be good?

» TV + Sound + Elites
They've usually have a couple Elites sitting around where I am at.
If you have an old TV and sound system it is no wonder you say some of the things you do. You should upgrade both before you get either next gen console. Once your picture an sound quality is up to snuff you will begin to understand what next-gen really is.

Hi Common Sense,
Although I don't like the idea of "where are u? (Unregistered)" gloating, your fanboy response does not rise any higher than his does.
As for your answer that you do not need to buy any new console (in this case the PS3), I would agree, seeing that you spend the majority of your waking time on this website searching for new ways to discredit a rather spectacular machine by Sony. Not trying to say here that the 360 is bad, just saying that I doubt whether you actually spend any respectable amount of time playing on your 360, that is, if you really do have one.
Anyway, good luck with your machine and games (if you really are a gamer).
Regards,
MTK

Common Sense posts his crap here too? I mean, I guess on the 360 board it doesn't look too bad, but on the PS3 board? That's just low. If you claim to be a gamer, why do you act like such a fanboy? Everybody knows fanboys aren't real gamers. I still think MS pays you
Anyway, damn this is good news! There's been such a lack of good PS3 news I haven't been to the PS3 site in ages, and man does it look different. I like the colors QJ ;)
Hopefully this boosts PS3 sales a good deal, because even though I don't really care for Sony much, I'm not going to deny that they brought gaming to where it is today, and I'd really hate to see them fail.
If MGS4 meets its 07 release date, $560 for a Blu-Ray player and MGS4 is looking like a good Christmas present to give myself

» 4 more years of PS3 profitability? Any profitablity for sony?
It all depends on how long sony can profit off the PS3 that's all. The PS2 is still profitable for them, so it remains. They aren't going to run a charity to fulfill a promise they made because most of you will have forgotten it by then anyway.
All previous consoles have had a lifespan of about 5 years. By that time most people are looking for the next step forward. I'll be looking forward to the next XBOX around 2010 or 2011 because I can't even imagine what next gen will be capable of.
At least the PS3 is now reasonably priced, and if I already didn't have the 360 sony could have had my business.

That... was one of the few times that you've given a logical and reasonable answer.
Unless you are able to afford just one console, however, it would be the best of both worlds to get both consoles and enjoy both.
Hell, I have both and am thinking of getting a Wii when I have some of my finances in order.

are you feeling ok? i've never seen such a well constructed response from you. it actually made sense!
the price cut is good news for sure. i have two friends that were sitting on the fence and $100 off and 5 free BD's just knocked them over onto sony's side.
