Sony to launch new PS3

im pretty sure they are already selling these in SA...all the online stores have them and so do the shops. Not really news.
 
250GB? Only seen the 120GB myself.

I just wish these [-]companies[/-] Sony would stop it now - pick something and stick to it - a new version every few months only confuses the market and makes people more likely to wait than buy now.
 
Yes they are selling them already. and you get Uncharted 2 for free... just go to CNA.
 
Im confused.
this is the second post today about the 250gb PS3 being new.
I saw them in the shops 2 weeks ago already.
Im not talking about online shops im talking about actual stock in shops.
 
I thought it was another major overhaul of the PS3. They shouldn't use "new PS3" as a title because this can be misleading.
 
This is so silly, of all the costs they have to manufacture the PS3, upgrading the harddisk from 120 to 250GB is the least of the costs. I don't know why they didn't just put in large harddisks from the beginning....:mad:

... warehouses full of obsolete stock.
 
Seeing as that media can be streamed wirelessly what other use does one have for additional hard drive space on PS3.
(and yes I know one can never really have enough GB's under one roof)
 
well, one thing is that a full 80gb harddrive will not perform as well as a 250GB harddrive with 80 gbs on it... but like you said, you can never have enough gigabytes under the hood...

dont try to understand the logic....
just know...it a money making scheme...ppl see bigger hdd and get impulsive and go buy...then realise they dont really need it...

off course there are those ppl who ont have access to wireless networks in there homes too!!
 
Same machine. Just different HDD. If I were you, get the one that you can afford and if you need to upgrade, you can get a 500GB HDD for about R700 in todays prices. Will be cheaper as time goes.

Installing full HD videos has it advantages like better sound capability, performance, etc. Streaming does not do all the best!

I have a 80G system and continually have to delete installs to play a new demo.
