Sony PS3 Super Slim

Postby Silver_Surfer1 » Sat Sep 22, '12, 10:34 am

What does everyone think of this new Sony PlayStation 3 Super Slim??

It looks great, imho, especially compared to the older bulkier units.

However, it looks like there will be no slash in prices on any of the other older units:

A cut in prices would have been a terrific incentive to many fans, don't you think so??

If the price is really "low", maybe I'll finish to buy a PS III one day ! :)

I didn't understand Sony strategy with the new PS3. But I don't understand Sony strategies anyway.

A price cut is about the only thing that would get me to consider finally buying a PS3 new this late in the console cycle. I'm disappointed that Sony didn't go that route, but flabbergasted that they tried to justify it by claiming consumers don't want a price cut. Consumers always want a price cut unless something is free. My opinion of Sony as a trustworthy company dropped a few notches from this maneuver.

At this point, not really. They have some good products to be sure, but when it comes to marketing and security they seem to have a lot of issues that make me question why anyone would want to do very much business with them.
