Extreme Rumour: 80GB PS3 Spotted in Canada?

A posting in Canadian bargain site redflagdeals.com indicates that for a brief time Best Buy Canada had an 80GB PS3 listed on their site. Compared to the normal 60GB listing only the HDD capacity is different on the page; SKU WEBID etc are all the same. SPG has checked the site and all seems back to normal but did anyone else come across this? Anyone have some Photoshop skills to see if it is a hoaxed page?

why is it they only are boosting the hardrive up 20Gb?
Why not boost it up to 120 or higher?
Is it cost?
How much are they going to charge for the 80gb version?

TruthHurts6173d ago

I don`t know why they`d release an 80gb,unless it`s the same price. You can put almost any harddrive you want in it.

SmokeyMcBear6173d ago

most likely the costs (for sony) between a 60 GB and an 80GB are almost negligable, it will become the new standard. So basically giving you 20 more Gigs for the same cost

TruthHurts6173d ago

i haven`t heard anything about this. if i do i let you guys know.

OTACON6173d ago

Maybe you won't believe me but, I think there is a problem on Best Buy database, maybe someone from there is teasing us? Or maybe I am a paranoiac user... :))

Lord Anubis6172d ago

well, the image shows 699 canadian, I think is the same price for the 60 gig version.

IBLEEDBLU6172d ago

considering the fact you can upgrade to 250gs or higher

i guess its because of the tv demand feature soon coming - and ppl are gonna need that 80gb at start

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

Furesis7h ago

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

It's worth a play through today.

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.

Fallout 3's Reveal Led To Death Threats And Bethesda's First Security Guard

The artist behind Fallout 4’s Deathclaw reveals just how bad things got back when Bethesda took over the series

anast1d 3h ago

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.

LucasRuinedChildhood1d 3h ago

As much as Bethesda deserve criticism, that's not really relevant to the reveal of Fallout 3 in 2007.

VenomUK1d ago

The default angle Kotaku always go for is to highlight the worst in gaming.

I would’ve focused on the creative.

anast6h ago

The game went downhill at Fallout 3's release. This is when they started to cut corners.

gold_drake23h ago

there is no "but". the hell lol
you dont send death threats, period.

anast6h ago

Usually, you have good comments but this isn't one of them. It just rides the mob. We can do both condemn the actions and not let them use it for other things.

I can say I received a death threat and everyone needs to shut up. People are not honest and will use horrible things to their advantage.

Armaggedon18h ago

Not all games “look” current.

anast6h ago

Their games always look like the gen before it.
