A GameStop conference call held today reported that Sony has discontinued production of the 80GB PS3 in favor of a 120GB or higher model.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
You BABOONS better hurry. Pick up you future gaming device, cause your 360 is about to die for the 8th time.....AAAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHA
ooops, my bad IT'S ALREADY DEAD. You're just WAITING for your replacement.....AAHAHHAHAHHAHA
"This is waiting".....for your replacements......AAHHAHAHAHAH AHA
Everytime I see news like this I'm glad I didn't rushed to buy a PS3... in reality the games I really want are not out yet.. Metal Gear and Final Fantasy... buying a PS3 as many did would mean... I would pay pay almost 2 time more and get almost 2 times less... and still not be playing the games I wanted to buy it in the first place... it seems that by the time the real games come out... the PS3 will cost $299-$350 and probably have a 200GB hard drive...
Specially knowing that Sony is trigger happy as far as price drop and changing SKU is concern... great things for those who can wait and at the end of the day will play the very same games... but just a little later.
Man, if this trend keeps up, in about 9 months we're going to see the old 60 GB hardware with a 200GB drive and 2 contollers + game (lol, probably Resistance 2).
I don't understand why they keep dropping in various harddrives. It's a moot selling feature given that they're common and replaceable at the user desire. If anything we should be saved the money of them putting a large capacity harddrive and instead spend that money on getting which ever harddrive we chose.
who cares how big the Hard drive is, what about backward compatibility, and the price?
Sony would get caught red handed and they would deny it to the end. LOL!!!
