Forums - Sony - America's 250gig PS3 Slim

If they bundled it i'm certain we'd see a 399 price tag, XD.

Honestly though, I was expecting this thing to retail for 399. Nice to see it's a bit cheaper than I thought. I know what I'm getting if my system bites the dust.

What a shock. Sony is serious about this holiday. This was obviously a choice to make it look like the 360 is the most expensive console out.

Sit back and think about this for a second. Three years ago the PS3 launched at $200 more than the 360, and a year later. Now we have a base PS3 with price parity, and a "high end" PS3 at $50 less than the equivilant 360.

Personally I think the idea of not bundling it is great. When I worked at Best Buy lots of customers would complain that they did not want to pay extra just because the console comes with a game they don't want. People are ignorant, what can I say?



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.

I'd expect to see bundling with the same priced for Christmas. We've heard of potential bundles that will be coming out.

120GB PS3 will probably price drop again next spring is my guess, at least $50, sometime around the release of the PS3 wand

Thanks for a link. Couldn't get the IGN one to work.

A 250gb bundle with either Uncharted 2 or Killzone 2 would be epic. I don't know if the world would be ready for that!!!!1



I'll do a signature later

I think it's a little late to get an Uncharted 2 bundle and Best Buy already did a Killzone 2 bundle a while back.

There's too many bundles coming this year. Sony's got enough. They just need to bring them to every region.

My thoughts exactly.  It'd be better if Sony had the 250gb bundle with a GH game of their choice and/or Blu-ray movie from a selection.
