article published on 23 January, 2008

Despite Sony's recent decision to discontinue the 20GB and 60GB models of its PlayStation 3 gaming console it seems they will be bringing a new model to North American.

Nice, if it can lower the 60GB unit price Ill be extra happy...looking at the PS3s the 80GB just aint worth it if I can get hardware BWC.

honestly i'll believe it when it's on the shelves. They promised a white PSP at launch for that console and it didn't happen for 2+ years till they made the slims.

They have gotten production costs down to $400 for the ps3, so another price cut isn't out of the question. What I want to know is, why would the black 40g version get a price cut and the white version stay at $400? Unless there is a change we don't know about.

This is obviously a attempt by sony, praying that consumers will mistake a white ps3 for a xbox 360. since it is the only way they will ever be able to catch up with xbox.

Why can't these console makers create a division devoted entirely to custom cases, and allow you to buy a system with a custom case online? Obviously there is a market for it. Look how well XCM cases do. They can give people what they want without voiding the warranty....Oh yeah, they want people to void their warranty, so that they have to buy a new system when something happens to theirs. Otherwise they couldn't accuse people of tampering with the hardware.

Let's see some Blue, Silver, Chrome and Crystal cases Sony - with some LED mods.

I'm more of a Voltron kinda guy. And spraying wouldn't work for the blue crystal clear case I want :-(

ya know if you stop and compare the ps3 to all other systems the ps3 has the outstading graphics, a good software support, it can update add new features with out buying a new system or accessories and the most expensive cd drive

there's nothing wrong with this system at all it's just the company who has not a clue wtf they are doing.

how in the F*** can you be making more systems with different colours and you cant even sell the best system

the play station has the best game line ups from the psx to the ps2
but sony jumps the gun and ignores the small game line up on the ps3.
this is why the xbox 360 is beating them when the xbox has the worst line when their best game is halo

sony can do much better if they wait till their games come out this year they'll be at the top

and if you notice the xbox is only doing well in the US hmmmmm

sony your full of $#!%

Sony merely shot both of their feet with the PS3...but soon they will be waking on others despite the stupidity rotting away their brain.... and just so we are clear sony might be super kung fu retard the 360 is the walking fcking dead....

the WII is like under dog...or adam ant a glorified NES..well ya..it is really.....oly minus the games....0-o
