I don't think Sony wants a slim, it'll cost them more money, post christmas would be best, stock would be depleted the market who wanted a PS3 would have gotten one and the slim would open up a new market.
I'd be surprised if inFAMOUS moved alot of bundles, considering its a new IP i dont see people jumping at it as with MGS4. But i do hope it gets the love it deserves. I love the game and think its great so far.
There is no ps3 slim. Just look at all the bundles and sku's available, it would cost more to produce a ps3 slim than to sell all of the units they have out.
I highly doubt there will be a price cut any time soon. It wouldn't make sense for Sony business wise. There will be no slim either even though Sony has in the past shown they are willing to sell older hardware in new bundle. Didn't God Of War PSP bundle get released just prior to a major revision?
The other part of PS3 bundles is, how many people buy a console to play a new IP? Cater it to people that are waiting for a justification to buy the PS3, the ones loyal and waiting for "the" game. Why not bundle it with KillZone 2?
Why this a good idea:
- KZ2 sales are slowing down since it has already been released - Great opportunity to show off PS3 graphics and wow the consumer. Something that MS can't match at the moment. - Just a guess, but I imagine FPS is a more popular genre.
Not that Infamous isn't good, I wouldn't know I never played it. However, if you are going to charge a premium price show why! Price is certainly justified, but Sony fail to show why in my opinion.
I think the PS3 slim is real. This bundle is 80GB, the slim is 120GB. Only cost is taking the existing stock and repackaging it with Infamous and a new box.
I highly doubt Sony is even considering a slim ps3 right now. It has only been almost three years since it has been launched. The smaller PlayStation models in the past were released much later in the consoles lifetime. Sony is more interested in selling more consoles cheaply, rather than making it portable.
WHERE THE HELL ARE THE ADS, THE COMMERCIALS FOR INFAMOUS, NOW I LOVE SONY AND THEIR GAMES TO DEATH BUT I HATE WHEN GOOD GAMES DON'T GET THEIR DUE IN SALES, GAME IS OUT IN 2 DAYS AND NOT ONE SINGLE AD? WTF MAN? WTF?
we will see a price cut no mater what it time as good as they have be doing it could be a lot better pulse the games we got coming out this year this is a great time
Alright. I hope this game gets more love. I've been having a blast with it! Other than a few minor problems and a few glitches here and there, its a great game.
Forget the bundles Sony, drop the price of the PS3 already. Make it affordable for everyone. Not everyone can afford this system.
Again, I am starting a petition on the censorship of this site of peoples views, and how N4G should reform the system of bubbles. It is quite obvious that fanboys for the most part ruin posting here buy deleting bubbles of people that have different views. This is censorship at it's finest, as the majority trounce on the minority no matter how valid their opinion is.
There is no doubt there are vulgar people here, and they should be dealt with. But when someone's opinion differs from the majority and they get punished, this is total censorship. Reform you system N4G, and let the minorities speak also. This rewarding of people who push the majorities views is totally unacceptable.
Sure let the minorities speak but you I'm affraid are living in a utopian dream world where policitcs works for each on every person, so I'mm affraid I must disagree with you which is both ironic and true. Sure we should let the minorities speak, their voice is important. But it's genuinly what the majority wants that's best or fairest for the majority. A agree/disagree system works. If I believe your statement is wrong for example
'Nacist is right' I'd click disagree. But if you said 'Nationalism it right' I'd neither agree or disagree.
I am yet to fully understand the bubbles system so I'll comment later.
But as for the PS3 being too expencive well a second hand Blu-ray would set you back 1/2 the price of a PS3 which is £150, the PS3 is cheap. Built in wireless, no batteries, free online, build in blu-ray, universal HDD allowing cheaper upgrades, large in-build hard drive. Built in browser. Music player. Video player. And on top of that it plays games. And all for what £300, bargain.
While I agree the price should be cut, I can also understand that Sony's running a business and they're trying to make a profit. I don't know what happened to saving money for something you really want.
You should be the LAST person to talk about the bubble system and opinions. People have a right to an opinion but not when they bring up inaccurate information like you've been prone to do on a daily basis.
It's true. The bubble system here is a bit wonky. I much prefer the Karma system of Gamefaqs. No lewd swearing, no insults, trolls are dealt with. But people with differing views can argue in an intelligent manner.
But the BS here gets this site hits, isn't it obvious? Look at what they allow to be approved as news.
N4G is a trashy, trashy site. It could be so much more, but it won't be. That's why you shouldn't take it seriously, at all, and just use it to find those 1 or 2 interesting news bites.
