[quote name='zewone']No. Not suspiciously. Just low since there are still a bunch of 'tards who care about BC.[/QUOTE]

I really just want to get rid of it before Sorny announces some BC plan at TGS
 
so the 80 GB is what gets the price drop to $299? Who would buy that now with the slim being 120 GB and the same price?
 
People who don't know about the Slim and just see the 80GB for $100 cheaper. Should have dropped it to $250 at the least.
 
[quote name='Mojimbo']I'm the first dude to shit on Sorny but $50 more than a Wii for a PS3 is not too much.

That's pretty :cool: how that Youtube video from the Philippines was spot on.[/QUOTE]
When you put it that way, I guess not.

Still not enough worthwhile games, though.
 
I can't wait for Uncharted 2, even though I still haven't played the first one. The beta was fun as hell. Aside from that, there aren't many disc based games I'm thrilled about. I've been buying PSN games like they are going out of style though.
 
Other than MGS4, LBP, and GoW3 (when it comes out) are the only games that appeal to me. I'd like to do the whole Blu-Ray thing, but I rarely buy movies anymore. The difference between upconverted DVDs and BDs just isn't enough for me. It'd be cool if this price drop was what it took for my roommate to finally buy one, so I could play the aforementioned games.
 
[quote name='joe2187']Why not just discontinue the 80GB phat altogether?[/QUOTE]
They are. Just selling the stock that's left.
[quote name='Number83']Anyone know what hard drives the 60GB uses? I think I want to upgrade it.[/QUOTE]
2.5" SATA
[quote name='Mojimbo']I am also looking forward to Uncharted 2. The competitive multiplayer was surprisingly good.[/QUOTE]

Yep.

I agree with everything you basically said. I don't notice a huge difference between Blu-Ray and my upconverter to even warrant getting a BD player and outside of LBP, GoW3, Uncharted and Heavy Rain I don't know what else is out there that isn't already multiplatform worth playing?

I'm even looking forward to the the SP, and I HATED Nate Drake in part 1.
 
[quote name='LinkinPrime']I bet the Wii drops to $199 within the next 6-8months.[/QUOTE]

Geez that's a bold prediction!
 
That was quite the prediction. :whistle2:|[quote name='manthing']I'm even looking forward to the the SP, and I HATED Nate Drake in part 1.[/QUOTE]I dunno, I thought the gameplay mechanics in the first one were solid and I liked the environments but I cannot stand the cornball writing or characters at all. I'm sure white people will eat it up.

I don't think so. They're still profitable, even at the current price point.
 
:whistle2:k. I just hooked my gf's LCD up in her dorm, and she has a bunch of digital channels. I think the school provides Comcast. I just hooked the cable from the wall to the tv and 14-1 is FX, 14-2 is History, etc. I don't know much about this stuff, so why is it like this? Is it due to the digital switch?

While they're still on top, they're not making as much as they used to and with the X360 and the PS3 at their lower price points, competition is definitely going to heat up. If they want to stay on top, they'll announce the price drop soon.

Is it an LG LCD?

I liked Solly.


[quote name='Number83']Thanks! Any size limitation? I'm thinking 320GB.[/QUOTE]

I don't think so? I've read people putting 500GB in PS3s.

I wonder if the HDD will be as easy to swap in the slim?

Yeah because the closest gaming console to come close to Wii sales was the DS in 2008 so yeah they have to rush to get a lower price on a console that will only be 3 years old this November and has doubled PS3 and 360 sales since it's been out.
 
[quote name='Number83']Anyone know what hard drives the 60GB uses? I think I want to upgrade it.[/QUOTE]

All of them use 2.5" SATA. I upgraded mine with this one not too long ago.

Edit: I was beaten to it. I'm pretty sure there is no limit, also. I've even heard of someone putting a 1TB in theirs.
 
$300 is still more than i'd want to pay. I didn't even get my 360 pro until i was able to convince circuit city to take a $50 off electronics coupon. Got it for about $260 after taxes.

It's because HDTVs have a QAM tuner that can natively read digital channels as long as the cable provider doesn't put a lock on them. Time Warner Cable in my city is on top of it and only unlock the local channels plus PBS variants and a handful of boring channels but it's nice to get HD channels without a cable box.
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']Is that because he's not around for most of the game, manthing?[/QUOTE]

Or it could be I beat the game months ago and outside of
Nazi monsters
it was really forgettable?

Enjoyable? Yes. Memorable? No.


You know, I started thinking you toned down your 'SonyTanooki' persona.

Apparently not.
