And so the price war begins

As the title suggested, the price war cut beings for Sony PS3. After months in denial, Sony has finally confirmed that NA is getting a PS3 price cut, from $599 down to $499 for the 60 GB model.

A higher version, the 80 GB model bundled with MotorStorm will hit American shores in August for $599. Still expensive, but at least you're getting more for less, in a sense. So either hold on to your money until the 80 GB comes, or buy the 60 GB for $100 less.

It took me about 3 price cuts before I was remotely interested in getting the PS2, so this news really means nothing to me. If I were ever getting one, I might wait till the slim PS3. Of course, that is assuming the PS3 is still alive by then.
