PS3 sells amazing, raises prices to take advantage.

"But teh Canadian $!" you say.....well Nintendo and MS aren't doing it. Huh. Weird how only the winner is doing this....

I agree that this a shitty thing as Sony is unable to afford to eat the cost of this as MS is. But don't you think your being a little over dramatic about this?  Your not a Sony fan so it really doesn't affect you. Plus, aren't you the one who has bragged about MS not dropping the price on the X360 since 2008?  Your obviously a fan of a higher price tag when it suits your agruement relative to sales. Or is this just about Sony not getting enough negative flack on the issue itself and you want to spread the word as much as possible ?    The console market itself in Canada is not that big. This is very small piece of the pie..

That. Remember 360 raising UK prices for the exact reason and every Sony fan pounced on that. Nevermind, I learned from this that Sony are blameless victims in everything they do.

Even though other outlets are still charging the raised rates it's interesting to see "The source" this week go back down to the $399.99 rate along with Infamous SS at $59.99.

You can expect a lot of price matching in the next two weeks. Even better is that the PS4 is back in stock so people can buy them in the store. I saw 5 PS4s at the Wal-Mart near my house. I'd like to see if they still have them come Monday.

Think thats more because of a retail specific incentive as Canadians don't buy video game products at The Source anywhere near on the same level as Ebgames/Best Buy/Walmart.
