SCEE president David Reeves has told GamesIndustry.biz that the 60GB PlayStation 3 will no longer be available in the US after stock sells out - which he predicts will occur by the end of the month...

Kaz says this in the video: "Again from a hardware prospective the $499 price adjustment that we did for the 60 GB version for the American market... we're no longer in production for that product... so once that product is gone from the retailers shelves, then we're back to the $599 SKU only. So, it is not like we have a two price strategy here in the US market, which we found out very early on, you know, that consumers react mostly to just having one SKU as opposed to two."

I think Sony were the most impressive by far. And only the most hardened of MS fanboys could resist buying a ps3 now :)

Sony did NOT drop the 60 GB. that was a rumor started by a website. All Sony did was lower the price by $100 and add the 80 GB for the original price. Whether every story will carry both models with be up to individual stores, but regardless both the 60 GB and the 80 GB will be sold in the US

way to totally misunderstand your market. the 20gig didn't sell well because it was considerably inferior to the 60gig - it wasn't that having 2 SKUs confused the consumers. having the 60 and the 80 with a reduced entry point price would have been brilliant compared to what the idiots are doing.

good news that they are still continuing the 60GB models. Sony wouldnt make a move this stupid. i dont know who would buy the 80GB models though unless 20GB is really important when you can buy a 120GB HDD for 100 bucks. anyways good news cuz i WAS a 360 fanboy but now i'm buying a ps3 :D.

Topic? This isn't even a topic. It's just another spam rant "Hey look at me! I LIKE SONY!"

It doesn't make it a topic, and the funny thing is, you complain to others to "stay on topic". LOL

I'm not so sure about that theory either. Maybe it just took a while for people to take a deep breath and take the plunge for $499. I had decided to buy one, and then I couldn't find the 20gb model, it was all sold out. I had no worries about it being "inferior", the 60gb had featuresI have no usefor.If it sold out, that doesn't sound like there wasn't demand for it. Same with if they discontinue the current 60gb model. Instead of offering 2 price points and giving people an option, they will do what they did with the 20gb, phase it out and sell the higher priced item.

Um will see, and how doyou know? did you go to every store and keep a talley.

The 60gig PS3 will not be made any longer.

The 80gig will come packeged with a copy of motorstorm and will be without the emotion engine. I believe when Sony realizes how well the PS3 is selling at $500 they will drop the price of the 80 gig to $500 and remove motorstorm.
