SONY man David Reeves hinted a version of the PlayStation 3 in Europe could have hard drive capacity of 120GB.

He said it would not be worthwhile for punters to upgrade from 60GB to 80GB but a larger, 120GB version might be something Sony would look at. Reeves justified the fact that Sony released a Starter Pack for its PS3 rather than an actual price cut. He said that in Europe it is unnecessary to reduce the price because punters want "added value". We guess that means that in Europe, customers are dumb enough to pay what ever Sony asks.

Not only does the US get a 80GB version of the PS3 it will continue to get it cheaper while European punters have to pay over the odds for a machine which actually is cheaper to build than the version Sony flogged off to our former colony. Although we may get a 120 GB machine

Hes basically stating common sense, they have the 60 gig, so another 20 gigs would be worthless to them...double the starrge and then they will talk...it confirms NOTHING. Just an executives useless musings.

i understand you can upgrade yourself and all, but is this going to happen every 6 months or so. Is sony going to continue to keep upgrading. I mean first 20 and 60, now 80, and soon 120. Is this just going to be a recurring trend. Should we expect a 240gb in a couple years?

Could we get a link to this please? As well, instead of having to buy brand new machines from now on, I think we should just have to buy / get upgrades rather than almost have to pay a grand for a new machine.

Edit: Okay there's a link - I'll take that back. But until I see this on a gaming site, I'll only take it as a rumor.
