who are the marketing geniuses at sony? they are shooting themselves in the foot! whoever heard of marking down your product,..*correction* phasing out your product only to jack the price back up to where consumers are wary to buy?!... regardless of the extra game and extra space, that s**t is just retarded...some are sayin\' after they sell out of the 60 gig model that the new 80 gig model will go down to 499....which is pure speculation.
I used to joke about how ms was fumblin\' all over the place with their different packages...now sony is following right in their footsteps, they should\'ve stayed with the 60 gig version and be done with it, who cares if ms has a 120 gig version, 60 gig is more than enough,....and that price drop was really starting to have people think that the guys at sony know that 600 bucks was a bit high....nope! they think that by phasin\' this model out and keeping at 499, that people all of a sudden are going to go and purchase this thing....newsflash....499 is still incredibly stiff for a gaming system, wow sony is really just screwing themselves this generation, and they are not thinkin\' about the consumer at all....
