PS3 Informer Writes:
"The problem is that - as the PSP Go has shown us - smaller and cheaper rarely go together. If anything, we would expect that the introduction of a PS3 slim model would cause the price of existing stock to go down, but we are highly suspect of any price reduction in new hardware. Since Backwards Compatibility and a few USB ports were removed in the budget version, there really isn't anything left for Sony to cut from the existing configuration to make it less expensive. And no, unlike apartments and diamonds, processors do not get cheaper when they get smaller. This could be a major reason why Sony was reluctant to show off the PS3 slim hardware at E3, fearing that price, rather than size, remains the number one issue for consumers."
Video games are no longer just a simple past time. Today's games are evolving into true works of art. Offering intriguing narratives, cinematic setpieces, and profound messages, games can entertain us for hundreds of hours.
I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now
Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.
Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.
Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.

People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,
But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.
Well, the PS2 slimline was introduced at basically the same price as the original PS2 hardware, which was subsequently lowered. I would expect the exact same pattern to happen here: PS3 Slim at 399, with the original gradually phased out and discounted to $299 or something.
But it is true that believing a PS3 Slim would somehow be the CHEAPER option is totally delusional.
Because Sony forecasted 13mil PS3s sold this FY -- up from the 10mil sold last FY.

I still say the phat will see a reduction and the slim introduced at the current phat price point and the slim only coming down once the phat is sold out.
Large cokes cost more than small cokes, same with fries, duh...
