Ok, any of you out there into video games need to hear what's really up with the supposed price cut of the Playstation 3 from $600 to $500. It's basically a price "break". Sony is dropping the price until all the current models are gone from store shelves (retailers, etc.). Once that happens the price for a PS3 will once again be $600 but will have a bigger hard drive (from 60gb to 80gb) and will come with a game (Motor Storm).
I post this for several reasons.
1) I think it's a dirty trick for Sony to pull. Those who really want a PS3 might assume they can pick when up for $500 when ever they can. This is not true. I am nearly certain that the $500 models will gone before Christmas.
2) It's almost like "bait and switch" to me (which is illegal) . This is where a company advertises something and then tries to sell you something "better" for more money. When the PS3 60gb models sell out you will be told how much better this new model is, when the truth is, 20gb's and a game are NOT worth an extra $100, not by far!
I highly recommend the Nintendo Wii or the XBox 360 instead of the over priced PS3 sold by a deceiving company.
