I think they can sell 100 PS3s throughout the day but I don't foresee 100 people queueing up for it. Firstly, it's not cheap. MGS4 was RM229. This is RM1800!

Secondly, the hardcore gamers all bought it already and it will appeal to those who insist on buying official products with local warranty. It will appeal to gamers who are not so hardcore but have the money to spend. All the games on offer are old stuff apart from SC4. Apart from the discount vouchers the package isn't that attractive. Very similar to the PSP package when launched. How many of you bought the official Sony Malaysia PSP?

Anyway, I'll be there to enjoy the gathering and spread the Blackmango Games word.  tongue.gif

Unable to compare with PSP due to one is hacked while PS3 is not.
I don't know am i a hardcore gamer or not. Indeed i was during my secondary school but now i think i'm not. Till now i also not yet get my PS3 maybe for me just only MGS4 for me to play while FFXIII not yet release and i spent my money on others stuffs already. But i think i will join the queue if the package price is nice. Reason i think is time to get since this package i think is not bad. I will choose Ninja Gaiden Sigma for the other game title. Yup is an old game but i never play before also. Why not? Then this package is 80GB with DS3. Not bad. So i will have 2 DS3 when i get the extra controller rather than 1 SA and 1 DS3 which in the end the SA will not frequently use.

Will there be 100 ppl queue up or not i really hope it won't happen so my chance to get the voucher for the DS3 will be higher. biggrin.gif

If you notice, there is no 80GB for Australia, but the new 80GB already launched at Australia, same price with the 40GB.

New 80GB Core Pack Launch

Australia 80GB

Buy from Bernard..
40GB + 1 Six + 1 DS3 = 14XX (but not local warranty)

Buy at Launching..
80GB + 1 DS3 = 1599 (local warranty)
*if camping will get 2 games. for 1799..

hmm... hard to decide...
*
14xx - 1599 = 1xx = 1 year insurance. biggrin.gif

Is it worth getting? 1599 for console with DM3?
I feel like getting one. Have been drooling for quite sometime.
Wanna watch blueray,play GTA 4...

You got a 32" Samsung LCD. Why waste it.


QUOTE(CoLiNJvC @ Sep 10 2008, 05:12 PM)
ermmm... i was in that situation too.

but after thinking that, by losing a sixaxis and gain 40GB more. It's OK.

And pay the extra RM1XX for a local warranty.

It's still a good deal.
*
Yup.
Get the latest.

you are right on that. i can't help to mention this again on why ppl would continue to make direct price comparison.

It is a blessing PS3 is now brought in to Malaysia.. not only does this guarantee us of getting an authentic PS3 (worry free from opened boxes or replaced lens.. etc), it will also ensure our unit is guaranteed repairable by sony (as stated above) and also enabling sony to carry PS3 games in their store as well.

to those guys who wanted to get PS3 but was lazy to go and look for one, sony can now ship it to your doorstep via sonystyle..


Added on September 10, 2008, 10:23 pmby the way... can anyone tell if sony is selling games as well in the launch day? i was thinking if i am able to get a voucher.. i might wanna use it to exchange for Disgaea 3..
*
I do understand a lot of question by now.
If the event start on Friday (24 hour game marathon). I will be there too to ask them all the question.
I would suggest you also can do that if you're nearby.

so basically the 80GB PS3 thats gonna released here on the 20th is just a remake of the original 40GB?
*
Yup.
40GB no longer in production.
80GB is the same machine. The different is the HDD and come with DS3.

QUOTE(crazyconsumer @ Sep 11 2008, 09:16 AM)
Recommended retail price = RM1599.

Hmm. That must mean, can get cheaper than that at shops (competition).
*
Not so sure about this.
As in the announcement, only 2 official distributors:
- Sony Malaysia
- Uptron Multimedia SDN. BHD.

the original 80GB has extra 2 USB and memory card reader. and PS2 compatibility(not really important though). Why does the launch version cut down on these features? ;( IMHO, its quite important as well to have these features, especially the additional USB ports.
*
Is because they think is not really useful to user. Maybe after some feedback after launched.
All the new model come with that feature already. Another way is to cut cost.

QUOTE(NOX @ Sep 11 2008, 09:34 AM)
lol.. usb u just go to any computer shop and buy the 1 to 4 usb port expander..

its to cut the cost of course..

why come with ds3? i think sixaxis much better.. love to drive using those.. haha.. really like using wiimote..
*
Simple explanation.

Sixaxis - version 1 for PS3 controller.
DS3 - version 2 for PS3 controller and is a vibration add on for Sixaxis.

Ruff Bark bro, the above reply given by Sony earlier pretty much contradict the recent press releases. If the games were free, why are we required to pay RM1799 on launch day instead of RM1599? blink.gif  doh.gif
*
Previous conversation may have some misunderstand.

QUOTE(Kyoyagami @ Sep 11 2008, 03:30 PM)
Dude, this question is meant for the bundle. Which means, the games are free and included in the 1799 bundle. The 1599, is basically the Core PS3 80GB unit only.
*
I think what he mean is since it said FREE, it should be the Core price instead of additional RM 200.
