Eh, I bought and installed a 500 gig hard drive on my PS3 for 80$. I don't think this is a very good deal at all, it needs a game pack-in or something.

Yep... the smart consumer would buy the 120gb PS3 and then upgrade the drive to 500gb.. based on what you're getting for the 250gb ps3, it's the more cost effective option

they should just make a 500gb ps3 and be done with it.

Im pretty sure they did this for profit and to combat the 250 gigabyte 360 modern warfare2 bundle, which is $400.

No matter what you think of it, its a good move. im sure the average consumer knows nothing about upgrading any hard drive and seeing a 250 gigabyte PS3 on the shelf will sway them to buy for only an extra $50. more is better in their eyes. just look at all the ridiculous 100 disc DVD packs they make.

Good to see Sony releasing a 250GB version of the Slim PS3. More choices for the consumers is always a welcomed plus.

A big +1.

I think the 120GB model is still the better deal.

Maybe, but at least the consumer is getting some options.
Personally I have a 60 GB and I haven't had any problems with hard drive space. Although I don't have any movies or very many songs on the hard drive.

LMAO! Really? I don't use that site, so I really wouldn't know...but...since he is using THIS site, does he know his site is on the ban list?

saprano · 10-16-2009, 06:07 AM

Haha, the guys name is sev at that site so it has to be him.

I don't think he knows the rules, he's hardly here.

Stephie_is_a_dork · 10-16-2009, 06:36 AM

Well...he will know next time he reads this thread

Who knows, maybe he'll take it upon himself to turn the site around and get it removed from the ban-list.
