PS3 price cuts?

Awesome Wells said:
That really makes no sense.

It's also not the reason as ALL models of the ps3, preowned, are not reduced in price. the shops have only discounted brand new 80gb models (which i presume are the only ones on sale at this point). I'm not interested in backwards compatibility or in having a large HDD. I've got 80gb of HD space unused on my 360 which won't ever get used.

If the shops don't discount preowned stock as well then they can fuck off because that's bullshit.

Give it a while, the price cut's only just been announced. They'll soon drop the price of used consoles to keep the differential.
 
Yeah, yeah. I'm going to wager, having had them for the last couple of years, stripped, repaired and rebuilt 'em, I know fuckloads more about PS3s than you and your "spoke to a shop", son...

Tell you what... you can have this one if you want... come and get it...

Course, you might need to learn to fix them before it'd be any use. :D

Look at the size of that fan!
 
I'm amazed that Sony didn't consider a Liquid based cooling system for the Cell CPU & related processors., or was that considered too dear to impliment, given that reportedly, the early PS3's were sold at about £150 under their true cost...
Mind you, now that the PS3 Slim is reportedly due for launch, for Xmas 2009, how much will they have to discount the old stock...
 
Wonder how much BBC have paid to get iplayer as an icon & direct link on PSN. Not complaining like.:)
 
I got one for my birthday [bank hol monday]. Also got COD World At War. All I ever play is Zombies, and World of Warcraft. Woohooooo!
 
That slim one woulda been lovely to get :( I rushed into buying my PS3 and hardly play it, but the blu rays I make the most of, I think it was worth it for that, might see how much I can get for my big one as it would be a lot more convenient!

e2a: Anyone seen trade ins at game or gamestation?

It's very easy to upgrade the hard drive. AFAIK 500GB is the current maximum.
It must be 2.5". You can pick up a 320GB Western Digital for £40.

Ah thanks - think I'd rather just get one of the £299 ones and not void the warranty though - as Billy Bragg once said, the temptation to take the things we love apart so we can see how they work must be resisted, because they never go back together again :)
