That is probably the most pathetic press of the generation

No this is exactly what I am doing they are spot on genuis here.

I want what he is smoking.

they just announced it and won't sell one single unit until next week and he already knows who is the one buying it. So much BS in one press release is just scary.

i think this proves theres only so low you can go, its not as if every year £50 can be cut off etc

i think it will proove quite popular and no doubt that there selling for profit now, i get a feeling this new model is priced with a good chuck of profit on top thus when ps4 launches they can drop it to a cheaper price

If Sony says so then it must be true!

if this is true than 70M people (probably 76m by the end of the year) will be buying the slim over time...

Hmmm not sure if true.

You kinow, for as much as you guys visit a sales site, you think you would be familiar with the term market research. Sony didn't just pull this info out of their ass. Of course, the key term here is "interested." Does this mean that interest will translate into sales? No. But God forbid a company release a PR statement that shines a positive light on one of their products.

no but sony's press releases are always a little bit too positive compared to other company's^^

and i don't doubt many 360 owners have interest in a ps3 for a decent price but not that they are especially interested in this new slim model. i would believe most would rather like to buy the actual slim for a nice price.

The title of this thread is misleading. The title of the article is misleading. This is what he said:

"he 'Super Slim' PlayStation 3 has attracted "very high interest" from Xbox 360 owners looking to pick up a second console"

People who were already considering buying a PS3 had answered that to at least some degree, they find the new slim slim more appealing. My feelings: Duh?
