Sony will announce tomorrow that has bowed to consumer pressure by not only reducing the price of its 60GB console, but also creating a 40GB version priced at £299 to go up against the Xbox 360 Elite.
Confirmed by multiple sources in the games industry in the UK, Pocket-lint has learned that Sony Europe will officially drop the price in the UK of the games console by £56 to £369 in an attempt to boost sales ahead of the Christmas rush.
"We are currently under strict NDA, however that NDA runs out in the next 48 hours," a retail source told Pocket-lint.
"Sony is clearly hoping to make a comeback against the Nintendo Wii, which is currently outselling the PS3 four to one," an industry insider told Pocket-lint.
Wolfenstein: The New Order turns ten years old today, so we decided to play it again and discovered just how much of an extinct kind of game it is.
Wolfenstein: The New Order launched 10 years ago today, but can it stand up to the modern FPS titles it inspired?
I disagree. Its still a fantastic game, with very good gunplay and a surprisingly loveable cast of characters and a good story trough many different and interesting setpieces
From school politics to ping-pong, pistols to police procedurals, let’s dive into the best that Rockstar has to offer.
the rise of the pheonix,the second coming of christ...oops a 399$ ps3
best thing is the ps3 is not losing wifi,very important because thats the only way a psp can be connected to the ps3 and somehow i feel that the ps3-psp connectivity will play a major role,ever since the psp sales boost.
play b3yond.
Still left with 2 usb`s which is fair enough i guess, not that many 4 player split screen games in the world! And losing the memory card readers, will the mass market/casal gamers be disaapointed at the loss? er, no........For 299 its still a bloody good price, and hey....it plays blu-rays as well!!!!!
THank god! the 360 is going down. now it begins. *stripper music starts*
if the price drop and the introduction of the new model boosts sales enough for Sony to even attempt a comeback against the Wii.
Memory cards are useless and I only use 2 USB ports myself. (keyboard and controller, though I can go wireless and use a mouse too. Hurry and come out UT3!!1!!)
