There have been many rumors lately that Sony would be dropping the 80GB version of the Playstation 3 and come out with either a 120GB or 160GB version.
The new 120/160GB version would also come with the new Dualshock 3 controller.
There have already been signs of the 80GB version disappearing, Best Buy hasn’t been receiving stock of the 80GB PS3 for several weeks and employees of Best Buy have been asked to pull advertising for the 80GB model.
I’m not really sure why Sony would be coming out with a 120/160GB since I’m not exactly sure why anyone would use that much space however it seems like it is incredibly likely since so many websites have been reporting the rumor.
This new rumor comes right on the heels of the Playstation 3 price drop rumor, but this new rumor leaves me wondering one thing, if the 80GB Playstation 3 is discontinued what will that mean for backwards compatibility of PS3’s?
Well the reason why Sony wants to launch the New 120 or the 160GB is that if they decided to Launch a 100GB it’s nonsense cause 20GB difference is not that much, so 40 GB more is worth it + any 1 might use up all the 120 or 160 Sony PS3 space if they added alot of Songs + Videos and movies + In my opinion in the 120 or the 160 GB Sony will re-add the PS2 Compatibility, SACD Support and Flash Card Reading, man it’s like Twice worth it ( get it) or maybe triple!, a brilliant offer from Sony!
Thanks, 😛
