surprising? not at all. just wait ’till the general public gets a hold of this info. it’s gonna get crazy. i wonder if Activision is finally satisfied now? not that it’ld make me want to buy any of their games. they could still drop Sony and it wouldn’t make a lick of difference to me.

plus the white psp go looks so sexy, more sexy then the black one.

I would think that PS3 Slim being almost the same price as PSP Go! would effect the Go!’s sales, but I guess portability is worth the price (and already having a PS3, I want a Go!)

Sony should tell that douchebag Bobby to lower his game prices.
Suck on those Activision!

whats an xbox????
August 19th, 2009 at 1:45 AM
Yeah I am in a dilema with the price of the Go and PS3 so close and if the offer for early adopters in EU does not come to US then I might have to get a new slim… Since I already have a PSP Slim and it can play the GT for PSP.
August 19th, 2009 at 1:48 AM
so wait did Sony comment if you can upgrade HDD on Slim?

While I don’t think Sony has officially commented, Engadget has confirmed it is possible: http://www.engadget.com/photos/playstation-3-slim-unboxing-and-hands-on/2216912/

Well deserved. I hope Sony gets great sales through the Holiday season and forward.
August 19th, 2009 at 8:08 AM
Booyaka, let’s just hope PSN doesn’t get clogged with morons.
August 19th, 2009 at 8:19 AM
Great news for Sony! I hope this is one of those situations where once the price drops below a certain point, sales remain high for the forseeable future. Oh and Activision, why don’t you follow suit and lower the prices on your ****ing games?!?
August 19th, 2009 at 9:08 AM
it would be funny if Sony turned around and told activision to lower their prices or Sony just might not be able to support them in the future.
August 19th, 2009 at 10:32 AM
Good for Sony!
August 19th, 2009 at 11:16 AM
I’m kind of surprised so many people are willing to pay $250 for the PSPgo when you can get a PS3 for only $50 more. It seems like a rip off to me.
August 19th, 2009 at 5:32 PM
if you preorder in game stop delivery is estimated for august 24th not sep 1rst..
August 20th, 2009 at 3:10 AM
this is definitely not surprising. I can’t wait to see the masses when they found out that sony dropped the price. sales would go crazy. This price drop is very significant. More people would now jump into the system.

[...] Since it’s reveal last week at Gamescom, the 120GB PS3 Slim has been the talk of the internet. With a price drop, new form factor, and new logo, the PS3 slim has re-invigorated the PlayStation brand. At the low price of $299, it’s easy to see why sales would skyrocket. [...]
