bro just a small query, is it worth to buy ps3 slim now....or wait for PS4?
*
very hard choice la... If I'm in ur position...

bcoz Sony gave the older generation 3-6year b4 discontinuing it after their launch the newer generation...
Exp ps1 fully discontinued 23 march 2006,ps2 release in 2000,ps3 come nov 2006
ps2 still selling around world,Sony is slowly discontinuing until ps4 come out or until ps3 price come down to US$100-199...

if the ps4 come out 2012/2013 do u think u can afford it?? bcoz ps3 launch price is US$499 & initial production cost is US$806-850...
Sony will definitely add something new like full 3D capable console,FULL HD gaming(1080p n above & >70fps) drool.gif drool.gif ,newer storage media (HVD),increase CPU the clock speed,ram,cores,etc...
all this could cost more or less... sad.gif sad.gif
It could take 2-5years for it to come to "affordable" price...
ps3 from US$499 to US$299 in 3years
ps2 from US$299 to US$99 in 4years

Like zerouzer said next gen will at least take 2-3years from now...

late 2012/2013/2014 + 3-4years(affordable price) = 2015-2019 = WAY TOO LONG WITHOUT current gen console mega_shok.gif mega_shok.gif
I'll definitely die man....

Conclusion: Better buy ps3 slim NOW!!!!! I definitely cant afford buying launch day ps4...

Bros I want to buy a PS3 320G.. last Sunday when i asked the sony centre and sony style the price was RM1299 they said i ll get the console alone and one controller without game or HDMI cable...

Is this the normal package with the exact price? I tried to bargain with them but they said it is a controlled price product and there is nothing to reduce.

But i read here that some of you have bought it for less price and some also got with HDMI cable.

Which is the best place to buy the original console with warranty and for low price?

I am confused  rclxub.gif Please help me out... icon_question.gif

P.S - I am a noob... I apologize if i sound ignorant..

Sony  Malaysia is having a promo now, RM1019 for the 160gb PS3....

- 1 Wireless Controller Black (Dual Shock 3)
- AV Cable
- USB Cable
- AC Power Cord
- Manual

and RM1099 for the 320gb (but stocks are low or sold out at most KL shops)

Bought mine at KLCC a few days ago.....

opted to buy it at a Sony store as for me its a good deal that gives u peace of mind..rather than saving just a little, but bigger probs IF anything unexpected occurs.
