160GB PS3 Coming Coming Soon
ps3 August 20th, 2008
No sooner do we get all excited about the newly launched 80GB PS3 than Sony go once better with confirmation that a 160GB Model is set to be launched in Europe this Autumn. Provisionally pencilled in for a 31st August Release date the 160GB Sku will have the same features as the 80gb model, just the larger hard drive and will ship with Some downloadable content pre-installed. Priced at around 499 Euros (so roughly £395!) this model aint cheap, in fact you are paying almost £100 for the privilege of an extra 60GB of Disc space, lets hope the extra content justifies the extra cost.

A bit of a rip off if you ask me, you can get a 250gb hard drive for around £30 and convert your 80gb, so the seperate selling price is around £315 (ps3 around £285 + hard drive £30) so for an extra £85 i would expect a lot of games bundled and an extra controller. Will sony bundle 3 games with it? probably not, it’s just a way of squeezing more money out of us, stick with the 80gb or the 40gb if you can get one cheap enough and converti it yourself!
