They haven't even released the 80gb core pack yet, and they just came out with the 80 MGS pack not that long ago. How many packs do they need? If I need a bigger had drive I'll do it myself....

If it has BC, I'm getting it. If it's just the 40 with more HD space, I'm gonna upgrade my HD.

WTF is sony's strategy with all of these consoles?Especially since most people who want more space just buy the bigger hardrives which cost alot less money.

all it is really is a 40GB (meaning no BC) with just a much bigger hard drive.

and yes, the new 80GB with the no BC is available. there are some stores that are already selling it as we speak.

I already have a 80GB MGS-4 Bundle. Got one before they take BC off completely.

Go get one guys before they run out of stock.

Oh ok so screw it. I'd rather invest my cash on a new hardrive instead. But damn, I really do wish I could play PS2 games on my PS3.

Great Europe is going to have the PS3 80GB and PS3 160 but none has backward compatible, why doesn't SCEE just give Europe backward compatible. Europe have been without backward compatible for more than 1 year and a half.

Why can't SCEE release a new SKU with BC, card reader ect.

Same here.They seem to be ignoring some of the people's request.Alot of people say that ALL people said that it was ok when sony took away BC,but when they said that I had no interest in buying a PS3.Why should the people who are late bloomers to the PS3 family have to suffer watered down vesrions with bigger or smaller harddrives.

I think they do it to make people think.

"Wow, the 80GB was the same price a couple months of ago so I get a better deal."

In my opinion this strategy in the end is just going to cost them so much more money.I think that it would be alittle cheaper to start to make BC for some of the consoles

Nah, Sony is just trying to increase sales of PS3 games by getting rid of the BC.

But in the end will it actually work?I will admit when sony did release the 40 gig I guess it boosted sales abit.But they can't even start to make BC for the consoles?I think it would be smart move.I mean look If sony were to make some of there consoles BC and keep the price the same I think sales would go up even more.I mean what is the number one complaint about these new consoles?No BC.Once again this is just my opinion.

Yeah, but Sony will probably just release a patch for BC once the ps2 finally dies away.

It seems like this constant release of new PS3 models with bigger hard drives seem to be working sales wise for Sony, which explains why they keep making revisions offering more for the same price and even lower prices. Now you see Microsoft trying to mimic the same thing with the 360, hence the 60GB 360 version. Anyways, I think it's pretty cool that Sony is still offering more to attract more customers. It's just to bad that they couldn't have done this sooner.
