Rumor: PS3 To Have Different Systems Too?

An EBgames employee has leaked that EB and GameStop are going to take pre-orders of the PS3 soon. But to everyone’s surprise, there will like be 2 packaging for you to select: $ 599 USD or $ 299 USD (O_O).

He also said the $ 299 version might not have the Blu-ray Video playback function, but the $ 599 version will. But still, both versions are capable of playing Blu-ray games. Now imagine a PS3 that can’t play Blu-ray videos… the only word I can find is “Lame”.

Ken Kutaragi’s words are still in my head even now: “You can buy the PS3 by working overtime for a few days.” I wonder if Japanese people are getting THAT well paid, or was he just referring to the $ 299 version?

We cross our fingers about this rumor.
