60GB - $600 (Now $450) - Full BC with upscailing required, no rumble. 20GB - $500 (Now $300-$350) - Full BC with upscailing required, no rumble, no Wi-Fi, various things missing. 80GB - $500 - Limited BC with upscailing required, no rumble. 40GB - $400 - No PS2 BC, still no rumble, but rumble controllers are available seperately (I think?). Upcomming 120-180GB (which ever it will be) - $??? - ????
360 SKUs:
Core - $300 - Its a core unit 360. (Is a stripped down 360) Standard - $400 - Its a standard 360. (Is a regulard 360) Elite - $500 - Its an elite 360. (Has more stuff than regular 360)
Now which do you think is offering the most consumer confusion? |
I hate when people do this.... How many PS3 SKUs are for sale right now? 2, how many for 360? 4, Core, Arcade, Premium, and Elite. How many add-on's are available for the 360? A bunch, HD DVD drive, USB Wi-fi, harddrives... So really what is more confusing? 2 SKUs, 1 with a bigger harddrive and BC, or 4 SKUs with all sorts of add-ons and differences? |
hmm the Core isn't for sale anymore... its been rebranded to the Arcade (Core + mem card and games). | Just goes to show how confusing Microsofts marketing is. |
Nah, you're just being ignorant You can't ignore the fact that the PS3 has been going through a identity crisis since its been introduced. Two cancelled models in less then a year? and now the 80 gigs are dissappearing and rumours going around that it will be replaced by a fifth SKU? |
I'm being ignorant? You're just being a know-nothing 360 fanboy. Has there ever been more than 2 PS3 SKU's on the market at once? No. Sony is keeping it simple for buyers, either get SKU 1 with X features, or SKU 2 with X features. Microsoft has 3 SKU's renaming one, and multiple add-ons, unless you are a complete idiot you'd see that Sony is keeping it far simpler than Microsoft. Frankly I'm getting tired of your stupidity. |
How is cancelling and phasing out 2 SKU's in less then twelve months keeping it simple?
