QUOTE Sony Confirms 80GB Aussie Release and Price IGN's recent retail scoop is made official. by Narayan Pattison, IGN AU Australia, August 17, 2008 - Last week we reported exclusively on an Aussie retail leak about the new 80GB PS3 being due to be released in Australia on 28 August for $699. Unsurprisingly this report turned out to be spot on, as Sony recently distributed a press release confirming the price and date as being identical to our earlier report. In addition the press release reveals that it will be a DUALSHOCK 3 controller that is bundled in with the new 80GB system. In other news, Microsoft today announced its new 60GB Xbox 360 Pro console is now available for $499 (replacing the 20GB console). http://ps3.ign.com/articles/899/899534p1.html

QUOTE(king_eric @ Sep 29 2008, 11:54 PM) hi guys, planning to move into my first house soon. one of the things i need confirmation is whether the PS3's backward compatility is as 'messy' as shown in youtube? am first time wondering into the world of PS and not sure to go with either one of the combo below: combo 1: dvd player and PS2 combo 2: PS3 advices appreciated Best Combo DVD Player + PS3  Ya is ture. If you have a LCD i think you should save your money for the PS2 for PS3.

QUOTE(juniorpop @ Oct 12 2008, 05:02 PM) It's not a good time to get a PS3 at the moment. Look what happened at TGS 2008! I also quite dissapointed with TGS as Sony don't have any conference. Nintendo not even attend it. But nothing do with PS3. It doesn't mean no new game for PS3 rite.

QUOTE(danmooncake @ Oct 19 2008, 03:57 AM) Hmmm.that picture looks like a thumbdrive only, maybe the little slot is for reading other type of cards? Any kind of thumbdrive can be used on the PS3 with the 2 USB slots. If need more USB slots, just buy a USB hub. Only the older PS3 80gb with the PS2 software backward compatibility has the multi-card reader. But, nowadays why need build a PS3 with multicard reader anyway.. there are plenty of those available as external that everybody already using for their PC can buy cheaply. Yup. It look likea thumbdrive hahah. The slot is for Memory Stick,

Check out latest price from SonyStyle. As what my fren told me they had increased the price due to currency exchange. I think everyone will shock to see it.
Console Only - RM1,599 -> RM 1,799 Console + 2 Game - RM 1,799 -> RM 1,899 DS3 - RM 169 -> RM189
Even game also increased around RM20-RM30 Previously the Uncharted Drake's Fortune is RM 189 now RM 219.
Check it out at sonystyle.com
p/s:SonyMY did it again. Luckily i get mine during launch. RM 1968 - Console + 2 Games + 1 extra controller with freebies.

QUOTE(AskDS @ Nov 18 2008, 12:27 AM) I just asked a shop in Cheras this evening and was quoted RM1690. If I take with one game bundled, it would be RM1650. Apparently the shop will "absorb" the cost of the game if you just want to take the console only hence the higher price. Not very logical but I guess they have to do it because of Sony Malaysia policy. I walked across to another shop and they have the SG 80GB Asian Set going for RM1380. I am curious to know the experience of PS3 owner who bought SG PS3 set in terms of the quality of these SG set? Are they any known quality issues that I should be aware of? I am going through the PS3 FAQ thread slowly but would like to get some quick feedback. I intend to the use the PS3 as my blu-ray player hence I don't need the games. The shop owner claims that they can fix the len problem and at a cheaper rate that Sony Malaysia. I wonder has anyone actually sent their SG PS3 for such repair before (touch wood) and your experiences (good or bad). Any feedbacks is very much appreciated. Pro and Cons for it. If anything u will regret. If nothin happen u save some. But why not just play safe since you already paying so much. U won't know what will happen rite. If u talk about SG 80GB then is the old one where got memory card slot.

QUOTE(gundamalpha @ Sep 7 2010, 02:29 PM) Such a misleading statement  Haha sorry I think I really misleading. PS3 games is region free but not the console. So even you have a MY/SG PS3 set. You able to play others region game. Correct me if I misleading again.
