Forums - Sony Discussion - PS3 price drop (60 euros) coming at the end of august !!!

It makes sense to cut the price in August if Sony wants to get close to the 13 million shipment forecast.

how much is 60 euros? in £? Because you get get a PS3 for £280. Its proabably cheaper to import even with this price cut.


60 euros=about £50

I was about to say, why 60? It is random compared to 50.

60.00 EUR

=

83.8558 USD

Euro   United States Dollars
1 EUR = 1.39760 USD  

1 USD = 0.715514 EUR

Wait... A PS3 with only one USB port? (im assuming the current one has two)

Also at $339 thats only a 15% cut! Wheres the rest!!!

I believe you'll find it where you left it good sir !

 

 

In the closet perhaps ?

 

 

 

btw that's a good indicater.

How will people be able to play Tekken 6 with two low latency USB fight sticks if the console only has ONE!!! ONE USB!!!!

Btw, where can I find the Euro and Pound sign on an American style keyboard? Its like foreign currencies don't exist!

How ? It's Called.. BLU RAY !  Firin ma lazah ! Blue Tooth ! And by that I don't mean harold Bluetooth the viking, Nay ! I mean the low latency signal that ps3 controllers use... 1 Usb port will indeed suck though..

It doesn't affect me though, my ps3 has 4 and I don't use fight sticks to play tekken.. I prefere the controller :X !1

It probably depends on who made the keyboard.. You should be able to find the american patriotism sign somewhere on it.. and it should be at a level between 1 and 5. At level 5 the keyboard also makes a waving sound when you use it and has the same colours as the american flag. Some also comes with a eagle. At 1 it should include currency signs you've never even heard of.. such as this :

 

On another unrelated note:

I know it's old, but it's unrelated so it's ok.

 

On another related note: 60 euro is closer to 100 dollars than 50.

Leaked photos show two USB ports though ....

This apple fantastic keyboard doesn't do Euro or Pound, has it got something to do with Macs being Pounded in Europe for not being cool enough to justify the high(er) price charged with both a Euro tax and a Mac tax? It does do ^^^^^^^^ and %%%%% and ((((((( and ))))))) &&&&&&& &&&&&&& or something like that. What level is it?

60 Euros may be closer to $100 but its also closer to BETRAYAL of the Sony fans that 100 Euro is.

 



Tease.

Could be that the leaked photos were of a prototype and they might have finetuned it since then. or they could have been fake. either way.

Maybe, but the USB ports in the PS3 are double ports, original PS3 had two double ports, since 40Gb model they only had one double port. I don't see how they would save any money by cutting it to a single port, the electronics are exactly the same, it just has two inputs. I guess it could save a small amount of space, but that would be pretty insignificant. The whole PS3 slim rumour started from these photos, so if they're fake, then that casts doubt on the PS3 slim however many USB ports it has.

McDO is pretty good in his category, I really like it.

My mother car is ... a Ford  !!

By the way : USA is one of the most anti-France country out there ...



Time to Work !

Making the PS3 even worse now are we Sony? Just suck it up and start making the original PS3 with full BC support.
