Isn't this only confirmed for UK?

I've read nearly everything about this and nothing has come up about US version.Just cause UK has it doesn't mean US getting it, they also got the starter pack, we didn't.

Yeah, agreed.

It's great to see Sony starting to give us what we want. I think next year we'll see a nice rise in PS3 sales. Quality games like MGSIV and GT5 etc + fairly good price will do that.

the same rumors stated that the ps3 40gb version would come to america oct 30 with spider man 3. so it's possible since this one came true.

You know what's funny? Many people did, in fact, buy it for games AND the fact that it was a cheap Blu-Ray player.

I saw a $300 BR player at Best Buy today. Does that mean Sony is trying to keep up?

there are games for it. By the end of this year you can play Warhawk, Haze, Ratchet, Uncharted, Tekken online, Resistance, Heavenly Sword, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Folklore and Motorstorm. Not to mention all the multiplats like Assassins Creed, Call of Duty 4 and Guitar Hero. If no game interests you then that's fine, but don't say it has no games because that's a fanboy lie.

Just like its a fanboy lie that almost all the games you named were to be some sort of killer app for the PS3. Not to mention would put the 360 to shame... And not to mention system sellers. Furthermore, I noticed that you left LAIR out of that games list. Any reason why? :lol:

I think your reasoning is just a little screwed up. First you say that a $399 PS3 is just for those people who just want to play games then you tell us that the $599 one is for the 'hardcore gamers'

Well the $399 40gb PS3 puts the PS3 in affordable range for people that all along just wanted the PS3 for games.

The $599+ 160gb PS3 would be for the Hardcore Gamer or User who wants to enhance there experience like with a extra HDMI port or the Multi-memory-card input or perhaps use there PS3 as a full fledge server with extra Ethernet ports etc.

Early adopters know the risks. Stop whining.

Selling consumers defective hardware is more a "slap in the face."

So it's ok for a TC to make a thread like this, but I can't toss it right back at him?

When I got the 360 I had no problems and many great games to play on it.

If people don't want the kind of post that I make then fanboys shouldn't make worthless remarks like the TC did, get over yourself.

Look at the Iphone they did a price cut and released new fetures, but to make it up to the early adopters they gave them credit. Sony should bend over and thank people who paid for thier system.

Let them have thier core PS3, the original comes with mad wacked perhiprials. Memcard readers, WI-FI, and the likes. The PS3 needs a core model. That way they can compete with the 360.

What does the PS3 399.99 special come with??
