PS3 SLim is finally announced!

[Bobdrakke]

The slim is step in the right reduction in terms of cutting costs and finally giving a price cut to customers.

 

off topic re: xbox360

Well it all depends where you live, Everybody gets screwed with Elite no HD cables being sold with the elite (not even component or vga) just SD composite.

 

US get reduction on arcade models while UK gamers get a price increase

They are following Sony's model for releasing that shit.

[L.S.D]

There is a rumored X360 Slim too. Any confirmed news on this?

[Smilee]

I think it's just speculation right now, although anything could come from Microsoft. Right now I just have my sights on that ps3 slim and all the games I barely get to play.

[L.S.D]

Yeah, I am looking forward to Heavenly Sword, Uncharted , Killzone 2, GT5, MGS4 etc

I seen some pictures of a ps3 slim sitting on top of an xbox 360 and they are nearly the same size. the slim isn't very small. just smaller then the roided out regular ps3.

My question is, what the hell is Nintendo going to do? For $50 more dollars, consumers get a complete multimedia hub. Nintendo needs to drop the Wii's price, like now.

[Wizard]

It makes money. That is all.

it looks like remaining xbox 360 pro bundles are being dropped to $249 next week.

You really don't like Sony do you? Apparently the $249 price point is temporary seeing as the Pro model is being discontinued.

 

Anyways, that $249 price point for the 360 just makes me even more concerned for Nintendo. Can they really think consumers will look at the Wii and 360 and think "Nah, I want worse graphics, crappy online support, and the inability to watch movies". And that's just to start!

that's why I said REMAINING.

 

I'm just laying out alternatives.

I don't understand why they would discontinue the Pro bundle. It really competes with the PS3 and totally makes the Wii feel obsolete at its price point. Not only would M$ be stealing Sony's thunder, but Nintendo's "We're the cheapest complete console" statement.

too little too late

 

 

although, if i needed a bluray player i might look into it

 

if it was BC with ps2 and psx i would have creamed my pants though
