With the impending announcement of an Xbox 360 price drop just around the corner, Sony has firmly stated that it will not push back the launch of PS3 Slim to compete with  MicrosoftÂ’s discounted Xbox 360 Elite model.

According to an SCEE spokesperson, MicrosoftÂ’s Xbox 360 activity wonÂ’t make any difference to its plans:

We have agreements in place with all retailers and Centresoft to make sure the release date is not broken.


It just goes to show Sony's commitment to push the PS3 Slim to more consumers without any hiccups or delays.

Even if they gave 360s away for free, between the cost of "accessories", LIVE and repairs, you'd still be paying far more then a PS3 would cost you.

For $50 more than a 60GB Pro I get a 120GB HDD, a blu-ray player, built-in wifi and no cost on-line. Not to mention a quiet, reliable piece of gear that I can place any HDD in to increase the size. Hard to choose.

You can get a multimedia player!



But if I'm shopping for a gaming system, I'd better pick up a 360 :/

The PS3 being Multimedia means it's everything in one including gaming unlike the 360.

all the functions only improve upon the gaming. all of those make the gaming better and aren't strictly for just watching movies

You need to shut the f up. You obviously don't know what you're talking about and you're the worst fanboy I've ever seen.

You're obviously ignorant about the 360 (by choice?).

# mmm.... — Seoulfood 2009-08-26 17:02
This won't really affect 360 sales much. They're essentially just throwing in 60 more GBs for free (ooo~). Now, if they dropped the price of the Arcade, then that might stir some stuff up, but that would be stupid on MS part. PS3s are going to fly off the shelves for a while. Sony's playing catch up in a big way.
