PS3s to get yet another price/model change?
Oh, Sony. As soon as it seems like it might be a good time to get a PlayStation 3, your people go and do something that makes it make more sense to wait. First, they launched it at an insane price-point. Then they dropped the price by $100 and axed the low-end 20-GB model, only to add a newer, 80-GB model at the old price.
Now things seemed to have settled down a bit, and it might be a good time to buy… right? Wrong. New rumors have it that the 80-GB PS3 will drop to $500, the 60-GB models will get the axe, and a new 40-GB model will hit for $400. Make up your mind, Sony! You launched a year ago with a 60-GB and 20-GB lineup, now you're going to discontinue both to introduce minor upgrades. Well, I guess you will be getting more for your buck, which is nice, but who knows; maybe there'll be another price change in a couple more months.

Sony really hasn't made me want to buy. Their system is cool but since their price tag was so big right off the bat, I haven't been able to bring myself to buy one even with the price drop.

The hardcore gamers I know have stayed away from Sony PS3 because of the price. However, changing the 20GB low-end to 40GBs makes a lot of sense. 20GB simply is not enough for a working set of games. I have listened to my brother and his friends talk about how they can juggle buying online vs. retail due to lack of hd space in their 360's (only 20GB.) Gamers really need more HD space ...
