Sony Corp.'s 80GB Playstation 3 is outselling the new 40GB SKU in the latest retail data at Amazon.com.
On Mon., the 80GB PS3 SKU ranked at No. 24 in sales compared to the 40GB product at No. 34 in the Video Games division.
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.
the 80GB Ps3 Sku is a better deal if you need BC & other features
look like the 80gb ps3 has more of a impact then the 40gb ps3 and its amazing price point.
I dont' even know why people are buying PS3 right now! With all the price cuts that's been going on and all the big titles being delayed by this time next year PS3 is going to be $99. I'll wait till then to buy a PS3 and the big games will be out too!
Edit- Price drops that never happen eh? Hmm wasn't Sony saying that they are not going to drop the prices of the PS3 just 3 months ago? Then the last 3 months they've had two price drop(60GB drop and 80gb)two different SKUs introduced (80gb/40gb)... Seriously the way its going and how HD DVD is dropping its prices your going to see another price drop for the PS3!! Mark my words!.. We all know that Sony's agenda is to win the format war and who can blame them. I mean the movie industry is 10x larger than the gaming industry! I'm not hating on Sony for that! What I am hating on is how Sony used gamers to win the format war! I predict that's going to backfire on them so bad that they are going to end up selling their gaming division just like they did a month ago with some other components in their company. Actually its already backfiring... You just can't fight two wars fronts.. That's what brought Hitler down!
Amazon doesn't mean anything. Both those sku's are amazingly outselling the XBOX 360 on amazon.
80GB #23
40GB #33
Elite # 50
see, it doesn't mean anything compared to real sales.
It's probably because the 80gig has BC. The 40gig is still a great deal for those who don't care about BC. Both are outselling every 360 SKU, btw.
