Sony officially confirms PS3 Greatest Hits bundle as Target-exclusive, price cut still possible?

The news about a PS3 Greatest Hits bundle was pretty much already confirmed yesterday with a picture and some details right out of Target. Today, Sony makes it official. What’s more is that they’ve now also confirmed that this MotorStorm + R:FoM SKU will be specifically available in Target “in limited quantities.” This has led people to believe that a price cut may still be in order.

The news about a PS3 Greatest Hits bundle was pretty much already confirmed yesterday with a picture and some details right out of Target. Today, Sony makes it official. What’s more is that they’ve now also confirmed that this MotorStorm + R:FoM SKU will be specifically available in Target only.

In an email to Ars Technica, Sony indicated that these units will be sold in Target “in limited quantities.” According to Ars Technica, this clause leaves room for a price cut still being announced during next week’s GDC or much later in E3 ’09.

This is because, initially when the Greatest Hits budget-bundle surfaced, people scrapped the idea of a price cut. But now knowing that it’s only available in limited supply, there could still be a chance that Sony would announce a price cut across the entire board of retailers and across all PS3 models.

• New PS3 SKU spotted bundled with Motorstorm, Resistance – no price cut
• Rumorang: PlayStation 3 will get US$ 99 price cut
