a couple of neogaf members are now reporting that sony has dropped the price of the 80b PS3 from 399euros to 299euros. the bundle also comes packed in with a bluray remote and a game(or movie).
is a official pricecut announcement coming soon?
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.
It looks like photoshop at work to me, pay good attention
dude that looks real but i doubt it because woudnt have sony announced it publicly??
Not an official price cut but retailers lowering the price to gain sales.
Fishy to me. If anything it is a bundle that that particular store is offering to spur holiday sales. I don't see this as a worldwide price drop for the PS3 at all.
Notice in the description on Bartsmit.com for the 299.95 euro model.
Uw voordeel 100.00 which translates to: You save or You Benefit 100.00
Then the fact that the PS3 80gb + LBP is still 399.95 as is the Motorstorm 2 bundle. Me thinks this is nothing more than an in store or chain deal to dump off the Blu-Ray bundles. No more, no less.
Amazons lowered their price to £279.99, I'm guessing it's a stealth price cut.
