When asked why there's no 80 GB PS3 in Europe (at about 3:40 in), he actually responds: "You know, the difference between 60 and the 80 gigabyte is very small. We just feel that going up 20 gigabyte is not worth it. If you're going to double it, it's worth it. So maybe you'll see something a little bit later, but 60 and 80? Really not much difference."

I agree. Gotta love it when Sony tells you the truth, though tries to sell you otherwise (NA).

Hes a moron makes it sound like hes in competition with scea or something, should be caned even before Jack Trenton.

David Reeves should be the president of Sony's videogames division. Period.

I know Kaz Hirai said he's gonna give the regional Sony heads more freedom but contradicting each other is stupid.

"A house divided against itself cannot stand." Also Abraham Lincoln.

I keep getting confused by these statements...it's definitely not helping sell PS3s by saying it's not really worth it...

I dislike 'Yes-Men' but believe there is a time and a place to bring up your disagreements ...

With that said I do agree with him that 20 GB is not worth $100 but I also do not believe that extra hard drive space (above 60 GB) is particularly worthwile.

I think the whole 'temporary price cut' thing will help 60 gb model sales for people who think they won't be able to get a PS3 at 500 dollars again soon.
