Sony’s big March 31 announcement: not a PS3 pricecut
A few days ago, Sony revealed that they’ll be announcing something huge tomorrow, March 31. But what is it? The PSP2/PSP-4000? Could it be PS3 FW 2.7? PS2 backwards compatibility? Or what about a PS2 price drop? Well, whatever it is, we now know what it is not.
A few days ago, Sony revealed that they’ll be announcing something huge tomorrow, March 31. But what is it? According to a recent statement from a SCEA PR manager, we now know what it is not.
Ever since the news hit that Sony would be dropping some big news tomorrow, a bunch of people have been singing about a PS3 price cut. Commenting on this line of speculation, SCEA’s Al De Leon said:
As we have stated previously, we do not have plans for a PS3 price drop, and any rumors to that effect are false and are the result of speculation. SCEA remains focused on the long-term momentum of PS3. With the industry’s best software lineup this year, combined with our most aggressive marketing campaign to date, we remain confident in our approach and the value we’re delivering with PS3.
If it’s not a price cut, then what could it be? The PSP2/PSP-4000? Could it be PS3 FW 2.7? PS2 backwards compatibility? Or what about a PS2 price drop? Well, whatever it is, we’ve only got a couple hours left before they announce it tomorrow, so just keep those bets coming – the ball is still on anyone’s court (well, except the PS3-pricecut team, of course).
My guess is a US$ 99 PlayStation 2.
