PS3 Slim Trumps Xbox 360 Elite In Value

Neocrisis: With the new PS3 slim making its way to stores at a lower and more competitive price point of $300, Sony has dealt a severe blow to Microsoft's key price and value strategy for the Xbox 360. Comparing the head-to-head value of the Xbox 360 Elite and PS3 Slim, Microsoft no longer has the advantage.

It did before, the price cut just makes it more obvious.

hakis865386d ago

Although the Xbox 360 pricecut might spur the 360 sales a bit, Slim is still on top and it's gonna be interesting to watch the sales in the coming weeks (after sept. 1st when Slim goes "official" :-) )

zeeshan5386d ago

@hakis86, Slim is already official. Sony said that PS3 Slim will be available worldwide BY September 1st. Many retailers already have them and you buy one without worrying about official launch because it is already launched.

"It is mind boggling how much more Sony is able to sell at 299"

It's worse than that. It's 299 for the PS3 Slim.

It's 299 for ever. 10 years from now it will still be 299.

The 360 is 299 + 50 dollars just for the first year to be given the privelege by Microsoft to play games online.

After five years the 360 ends up costing you:

299 + 5 * 50 dollars = 549 dollars.

Add in WiFi and you will have paid 649 dollars for the 360.

boochs list makes the 360 look like a piece of crap.

boochs post should be printed and made into giant billboards.

where is the SPIN? u cant spin facts

it will b funny, im waiting

darthv725385d ago

if you are talking about retail value then the answer is most definately yes. It has so much to offer right out of the box.

There is another kind of value people here are totally missing. Entertainment value. Everyone has a different perceived level of entertainment value. Case in point...the wii.

Sometimes it isnt about how much better you are technically but about how much people are willing to accept without knowing the technical stuff.

Why is that so hard to understand?

You can disagree but it wont change anything.

Marceles5385d ago

"...especially the PS3's with their massive mandatory installs to make up for the slow Blu-Ray drive."

Meh...they forget that you can put other media on the PS3 besides stuff you buy from PSN, which makes an even better use of the HDD space.

On the online portion, they forgot to mention how most PS3 online games are lag free too.

Mr Bean Laden5385d ago

I ignored you at first, but then i took it off because your comments give me a good laugh hahahahaha

corywebb935386d ago

Puting all these features on the ps3 to try to trick people that the ps3 is a beter sytem
The f.b.i should investigate sony for tricking the inocent that there console is actually beter than the xbox 360

Tony-A5386d ago

Console with more value and features sell more. Proof? Meet the iPhone.

xb0x_trashie5385d ago (Edited 5385d ago )

ps3 have all the value

wifi
free online
upgrade your space
bluetooth
blueray
good exclusive games
reliability

xbox have only have 54% rrod exclusive
it not worthi it just throw it away in the garbage

Mr Bean Laden5385d ago (Edited 5385d ago )

360 is buying a console with last gen DVD 9 and with a 54.2% failure rate and hasn't gotten a AAA game since the stone age for 299$

while the PS3 with 1080p blu ray, wi fi, free online gaming service, movie downloading, and getting a AAA game every month and with a wide variety of games at the same price of 299$ and buying it is a bad idea?

hop off of M$'s d!ck and open your eyes for a sec ok you delusional bot

Edit: not to mention 75% of 360 exclusives run at sub hd and are all mostly UE3 crap ;-D

I lost my drive for collecting physical games due to many discs lacking the whole complete game. Instead, of collecting games I started collected figurines.

Popsicle22h ago

I am a collector have a room dedicated with a couple original arcade cabinets, physical game library, old and new consoles and controllers backlit with LED lighting. It’s very cool to have but with emulation being so strong and prevalent, I sometimes feel foolish because the hobby is expensive and like another said, the full game is not always on the disc. Could probably spend more wisely but I enjoy it.

shinoff21836h ago

Most games are usually on disc still. Of course you got you publishers that are hit and miss, Activision, ubisoft, ea, Microsoft, where the rest of the game needs downloaded.

Thought I was the only one who remembered Trinity lol very underrated

Yui_Suzumiya1d 7h ago

WET and Quantum Theory were both phenomenal

P_Bomb1d 5h ago

I remember Stranglehold! One of the first DLC packs of its time. A bit expensive, but cheap by today’s standards.

Chocoburger1d 4h ago

Another PS3 hidden gems list, and yet again Time Crisis 4 and Time Crisis Razin' Storm get snubbed. Such fun games, that shouldn't be forgotten. If only we got a home port of Time Crisis 5: Mastermind Edition.

-Foxtrot19h ago

WET is something I wish they'd remake, they had so many great ideas but not all of them were executed properly

It had a lot of potential

Also Wanted Weapons of Fate is another game that had some new fun gameplay ideas.
