Sony PS3 new low price, free extras
July 29, 2007 by Truman
It has been announced that the 60 GB Sony PS3 price of $599 is being dropped to $499. The system also comes with 5, yes 5 Blu-Ray Movies, and a Blu-Ray Remote, all for free. This seems to be a smart move for Sony, because although they are losing money now, it could all pay off later. The PS3 has already moved back into the number 1 spot on Amazon.com's "Video Game Top Sellers" List. This item currently has free standard shipping, and you can also get 1-day shipping, which tells me that Amazon obviously isn't running low on PS3s.
When the PS3 first came out. I wanted one REALLY badly. Not because of the Blu-Ray Drive. Not because of the SIXAXIS. But because of the hype. I was stupid. A couple of months later I realizd that XBOX 360 was the way to go, almost everyone I knew had one. Well, now things are changing. With the huge scandal going on with XBOX 360's red circles of death, I am now considering the PS3 again. I think this is the best move Sony could have made at this point. They knew they were dying, so decided to go down fighting. Hopefully, they will make a full recovery in the gaming world. The one thing Sony could add that would make this deal unbeatable, is a couple of games instead of all Blu-Ray Movies.
For anyone thinking about purchasing a PS3:
- Find someone you know who has one
- Wait for Killzone to come out
- Play it
- Check out the online
- If you like it, then buy it.
- If you don't then good luck getting your faulty 360 repaired.
Sony dominated the gaming field with the PS2. They got a slow, lousy start with the PS3. It was WAY too expensive from the beginning. Now, though, I honestly do think that Sony is rising to the top once more. And I couldn't be happier about it.
