PS3 Slim + PSP-3000 = $470 USD. Does this impress you?

When the PS3 was first announced as $600 USD, gamers everywhere were very dissapointed. Thankfully, the PS3 Slim is only $300 (which is reasonable for a HD console with 120gb HDD and Blu-ray). Nowadays, for $470, you can now get a PS3 slim as well as a PSP slim. Or, you can get a PS3 slim plus a PSP-Go for $550. Depends on what you like.

What are your thoughts on this? Are those prices reasonable for a HD console, Blu-ray player AND a portable gaming system? With deals like that, I think Sony is giving Nintendo is a run for their money, since Wii + DSi cost like $420. For only a $50 saving, you have to sacrifice 5 years worth of graphics improvement, Blu-ray player, hardcore games, multimedia features, 120gb HDD, and loads more.

Sony should use you for advertising.

Looks like Sony is really getting back on track now. Microsoft it's your turn to impress the consumers.

considering i spent EUR860 for my PS3 & PSP back in 2007 i say am quite impressed :) (not in a good way lol)

The ps3 was already the best bang for the buck when was $400.

The 120gb ps3 slim is the best eletronics deal I ever seen.

It is the ultimate device.

Yes in the US $470 for a PS3 and PSP is a good deal ... the PS3 is a fine machine and certainly deserves a look

However in the UK it's $644 for the same combo .... compared to say a 360 pro and an 8gb ipod touch for$495

Sony don't like us here in the UK
