Forums - Sony - Rumor: 500 gig PS3 Move bundle to be revealed at E3

CVG has learned that Sony is set to reveal two new PS3 SKUs this week (also known as Mental E3 Week) which will come bundled with the Move motion controller.

Sony plans to release 500GB and 250GB versions of its slimline powerhouse bundled with the new motion controller later this year, according to our source.

We were also told that the new PS3s will come with new faster internal Wi-Fi cards (802.11n, for those of you who know what that means). Current PS3s come with the slower 802.11 b/g standard Wi-Fi. Basically, that means new PS3's connection to PSN and the internet will be faster if you have an 802.11n-compatible router.

Sony previously revealed that Move will be available in three different bundles: standalone for those who already have the PS Eye camera; with the camera and a PS3; or with the camera and a game (the latter of which Sony notes will cost under $100).

We'll be at the Sony conference on Tuesday bringing you the official word as its revealed.

i kind of dont like how the new PS3s will get better wifi but i still have a B/C compatible PS3 :)

 

Anyways i think sony should focus on lowering the price a little bit. In this generation "you get what you pay for" is not a very good strategy.

not sure, thats essentially a $150 price cut... 100 for the move and then the 250gb coming down from 349

 

are these models replacing the 2 already on the market?

I AM BOLO

100% lover "nothing else matter's" after that...

ps:

Proud psOne/2/3/p owner.  I survived Aplcalyps3 and all I got was this lousy Signature.

Why do people need 500GB unless Sony intends to offer full game installs or something?!



Tease.

Well I already have a 500GB PS3 so

But this is a pretty good bundle if true

omg I hope that is no tease, I heard rumours about that $199 price, but anything the x360 can do will b silenced if that happens



it's the future of handheld

PS VITA = LIFE

The official Vita thread http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=130023&page=1

Sony may start offering PS2 DL

 

so that's when the 500gb HDD may make sense
