PS3 Price Cut Not Coming - 23.1.07

  Email to a friend



Playstation 3
Anyone hoping to get a bargain on the PlayStation 3 will have to wait until next year at the earliest to do so.

Sony’s Jack Tretton has been quoted as saying the price cut will not take place until the summer of 2008 at the very earliest. The price cuts, Tretton said, would not be as deep as gamers enjoyed with the PS2 either.

The reason for this is the fact the console is so difficult and pricey to create. The PS3, Tretton said, is “far more difficult to cost reduce.”

None of this is surprising, but as Sony reels to get its PS3s off the shelves, a little price cut might actually help. However, when titles become more readily available for the PS3, interest will likely pick up. The fact is right now there’s not a lot out there to play on the console, but with time that will improve.

Based on its graphics abilities, the PS3 could be hard to beat once the game library catches up with the release.
