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.
The Nerd Stash: "Developed by Treyarch Studios, Call of Duty: Black Ops games are some of the best in the series in terms of gameplay, story, and -- of course -- Zombies."
With these hidden gems to add to your backlog, it’s time to give some bangers the shine they deserve.
Numbers 6-9 were some of my absolute favorite early gen PS3 games. I'm still bitter about Incognito and Japan Studio.
The white knight chronicles and infamous games really need to come to modern platforms. MAG I really miss...poor zipper. The ps3 was definitely a unique console despite it being the worst home console of PlayStation.
BLG writes, "Do you ever get that feeling after you’ve finished a game that you just wish there was more? Or do you spend years hoping and praying for a sequel that never comes?
This list compiles some of the top games we desperately want to get a sequel. Please give us more of our favorite games!"
Would love to see a sequel to the 7th gen FPS campaign SINGULARITY from RAVEN Software..
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!!)
