There is no PS3 price cut – deal with it

February 25, 2009

There is no PS3 price cut - deal with it There is another rampant rumor running amok indicating that the PS3 will receive a price cut sometime soon. The rumors point towards sometime in April or June of this year. However, all signs seem to indicate that the PS3 in fact will not receive the speculated price cut anytime soon.

Rumors about a PS3 price cut have been circulating the Internet after the Xbox 360 received a massive price cut last September. Most of the rumors were just pure speculation and wishful thinking. A price cut would definitely create a nice sales spike for the PS3 and would make it a bit more appealing to those sitting on the fence due to its price.

As mentioned in Dave’s story, an analyst indicated that there is talk within the channels that a $100 price drop to the PS3 would be announced in a matter of days. He also claimed that the PS3 would get a Blu-ray less version, which would be pointless as Dave iterated. The most telling reason why the PS3 will not receive a price drop is from what Sony Europe Boss, David Reeves said last month.

In my story last month, I indicated that Reeves was adamant that Sony would not drop the price until the PS3 is profitable enough to stay at break even manufacturing costs even after a price drop. Basically a decision was made in an executive meeting with the board members that a price drop would be out of the question until the PS3 reaches break even costs.

Here is the exact quote made by Reeves last month:

The most important thing for us as a company in the very short term is for us to start making money. This is a pledge that was made last March and is something that we are still very much on target to achieve. Once we have achieved this, I think it will be a very exciting time for PlayStation. Once we have alleviated that specific pressure, we can move forward at a rate of knots.

It sounds like the meeting was in March where the strategic decision was made. Sony is in a difficult situation as there is pressure to drop the price, but in doing so will push them further away from becoming profitable.

The best solution seems to be to bite the bullet by losing some short term sales, and try to make up for it by dropping the price after the PS3 has become profitable later on. Unless Sony had another meeting since last month to make an emergency decision to drop the price, I highly doubt such a massive price drop will occur. However, I have been known to be wrong and if that is the case I’m sure I will be eating my words next week.

    MIKE AND DAVE!!!

    FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!!!

    psst Dave… keel heeem quick then send me his Killzone 2 copy…

  2. kevo:

    and another thing we havent even seen what the “heavy hitters” are capable of as in shipping units so i can see where sony is coming from and it’s not that expensive…u dont see sony charging online, hard drives, head sets, batteries, plus ps3 is an all in one package.. anyone agree?

  3. bigmickyd:

    ok so after trying to make three accounts and everytime i post it saying there was a problem with your post contact your site admin or something, i think i’ll give this one last go.
    I’ve been reading this blog for prob close to a year now while at work, i love gaming… to say the least
    few things i’ve picked up on.

    IVAN PSP, wow…were to start with this guy? and you have children and your older then 12… most of your post do manage to bring a smile to my face though

    kev, i have a bet with a work mate that your 14, he reckons a smartass 11 year old, i think a no friend 14 year old.

    SW and Avis seem to be pretty much the most level headed people on here (though Avis why no love for FPS?) and the headless Avis post got me in shit at work for laughing to hard when the boss was around.

    DWH, i’m amazed at how quick you manage to post some times, do u get smsed or something on new updates? (jk no hard feelings mate)

    DAVE and MIKE, i blame all flame wars, ever, on your postings, your the reason for the stock market to crash and the reason why ps3 hasn’t got a price cut…AND THE REASON THE DREAMCAST WAS ENDED!!!!

    CarlB, the fact that your over in IRAQ fighting a war that you believe in should be enough to get respect from even the most retarded of fanboys, you sure got mine by the way that you can still sit on here with a level head with the crap thats going on here and over there.

    CAD, wtf is your problem with Carl? yeah hes fighting in iraq, you don’t surport the war, but surely you would surport your fellow country man? i’m from Australia, and yeah i also don’t believe in the war thats going on over there but that hasn’t stop me from going into the city and welcoming them back after they have served, just cause there a solider doesn’t make them redundent, and i dare you to go over there and see what they have been through. i don’t surport the war, but i surport an aussie… any person for that matter whos willing to stand up and fight for the oppions (with in reason) maybe a little more respect could be shown to Carl?

    heres hoping i can keep posting on here… and that kev will start to abuse me like the rest of you

  4. harry sachz:

    erm bigmickyd, I believe you’re getting CAD confused with CON…. you may want to issue an apology to him…

  5. bigmickyd:

    yes ive just realised, CAD you have my apolgy in full… this site doesn’t have an edit button for posts?…different…

    yeah CON… put your name in for CAD’s, again sorry CAD, didn’t, mean for you to be dragged into that

  21. bigmickyd:

    that or clan leeroy jenkins

  22. harry sachz:

    if i ever buy a ps3 i’ll add you, but I am more than happy with my 360. If you ever get one of those let me know and we’ll do a Left 4 Dead session. Just don’t be like the people who I played with last night who thought it was ‘every man for himself’ and then got the shits when we all kept dying! haha

  23. kevo:

    i had the shits at the strip club the other night… bad stuff..oh was i talking out loud

  24. bigmickyd:

    in all honesty harry, i used to have a 360 and a ps3, but after the 2nd time it RRoD (not flame bait) i said screw it and traded it in for games for the ps3 (at the time i only had about 4-5 games on 360 anyway) i even managed to sell my xboxlive card with 6 months still left on it

  25. SW:

    “thought it was ‘every man for himself’”

    Yeah that happened to me one of the only times I joined a ‘pub’ game. These days I prefer to stick with friends, and we generally play versus anywhoos.

  26. harry sachz:

    Mine’s a launch 360 and it’s never RRoD’d on me. Guess I must be one of the lucky ones.

  27. CarlB:

    bigmickyd, thanks for the support sir. Darkwhitehair, same to you, but aussies rock (and so does AC/DC).
    Harry, have you spent much time with The Orange Box yet?

  28. harry sachz:

    kevo, just don’t piss the bouncers off.

    SW, there are times where you actually find a really good group of people to play with, it makes the game that much more fun. I am hoping they’ll bring out some more levels later on.

  29. harry sachz:

    Carlb,

    Unfortunately the Orange Box passed me by. Once I get a little bit of respite from everything else going on around here I might try to pick it up for a bargain somewhere.

  30. bigmickyd:

    any time carl… when i hear what you guys have done over there… amazes me sometimes.. and when i hear (we hear very little btw) about our S.A.S troops… i make sure i pay attention… though rarely get info about the cause there missions arnt made public?

    mayb if i had a lucky one id still have it harry

    DWH… man… killzone… wow… it just looks so good… im up to the part where you hae to drive the tank… lil annoying for you will randomly blow up just from the amount of carnage around u… tops game so far… but whats this i hear about no cover system online?????

  31. bigmickyd:

    just got my first trophy for passing the first level (im playing on the hardest difficulty aloud when you first launch up)

  32. bigmickyd:

    alot of swear though

  33. bigmickyd:

    swearing’

  34. CarlB:

    harry… I had my launch 360 for almost three years and halfway into the orange box (still half-life 2, I hadn’t messed with portal or the others) it went down, but they took care of me and it worked fine afterwards…

  35. chillyfish:

    No price cut
    = reduced sales
    = good news for the competition.

    Lets see how low PS3 sales can go before Sony blink.

  36. ncaissie:

    Hey bigmickyd! Do you know Crocodile dundee?

    LOL Jk

  37. ncaissie:

    I have my PS3 so price cut doesn’t mean much to me.
    I do however want to see them sell more consoles then MS

  38. ncaissie:

    CarlB it works now but it will fail again. Just hope it is still under warranty when it does.
    I heard of people sending them back 6 times!

  39. ncaissie:

    I picked up Orange box for $19 at EBGames

  40. phranctoast:

    Since when haven’t price cut rumors been shot down? It’s bad business to acknowledge a price cut before it happens as people will wait for it and it will affect your current sales. Price cut rumors and the debunking by official sources are like such a common occurrence, it’s hardly news worthy.

  41. Bourne:

    Is it me or does bigmikyd sound like DWH’s alter ego…

  42. darkwhitehair:

    I better not get any connection problems sony.. Im warning you…

  44. kev:

    dear bigmickyd:
    shut up, stupid. if i wanted your useless opinion, i would have given it you.

    it’s not suprising you’ve sided with the ps3 zealouts, ignored facts and attacked the posters.

    come back when you’ve graduated 3rd grade, sport.

    the fact you have dwh, bourne and the other ps3 idiots agreeing with you should tell you just how low your iq really is.

    now, run along…the short bus is waiting… :)

  45. kev:

    now, back OT:
    they can’t drop the price. they’re hemorraging money as it is. besides, the ps3 zealouts already claim it’s a “value” so they don’t have to drop the price…..

  46. darkwhitehair:

    ALSO!!

    OFFICIAL CLAN NAME!!!

    TEH_JAGGAMARS

    You better join it… or Ill keeel you… IN THE ZONE@!!!

    so clever pun…

  47. darkwhitehair:

    YESSS!!!

    thank you bigmicky… YOU HAVE BROUGHT THE DEVIL BACK!!!

    WOOT!!

    now dance puppets dance…

  48. phranctoast:

    Forza sucks.

  49. Royzy:

    I didn’t realize getting a package from Play.com a day early would be so exciting.

    Guess what I got!

  50. phranctoast:

    “dear bigmickyd:
    shut up, stupid. if i wanted your useless opinion, i would have given it you.”

    Don’t fret bigmickyd. All kev does is give useless opinion anyway, so you can kind of say he’s a pro at it.

  51. Royzy:

    “ignored facts and attacked the posters.”

    That would be you, kev.

  52. kev:

    royzy – waah…. don’t you have a presentation to get ready for?

  53. kev:

    phranc – so far my “opinion” is batting 1,000, sport…

  54. phranctoast:

    Your heads bigger than Barry Bonds and you think you batting 1000. check this guy for steroids.

  55. CAD:

    I’ll put my bet on Dave to take out Mike.

  56. CAD:

    bigmickyd

    What the Fuck are you talking about!!! When have me and Carl B had a dicussion on war. You got me mixed up with someone else. I know what your talking about as I remember someone going at it with him and I was really disgusted at that person who would slander someone who is in the service. Get your facts straight dude.

  57. CAD:

    bigmickyd

    Ok I read the next post. You are forgiven.

  58. Royzy:

    I did my presentation a few hours ago, was more people there than I expected.

    Well remembered if that was what you meant kev!

  59. kev:

    royzy – it stuck with me becuase i used to have to do presentations. haaaaate public speaking… as most….

    hope you did good…oops…. uh…i meant… the ps3 sucks!!!!… :)

  60. CON:

    bigmickyd

    “and when i hear (we hear very little btw) about our S.A.S troops”

    FUCK YOU, YOU WANABE BRITISH BASTARD.

    You’re part of a colony

    Again you guys take over the forums with your iraq shit. Correct me if I’m wrong but this war wasn’t sanctioned by the UN is therefore illegal so why the fuck you guys expect the whole world to have respect for you is beyond me expecially when your main reason on WMD’s is a proven lie and you have been found out as torturers!!!

  61. darkwhitehair:

    its okay guys…

    kev suffers from a highly mutated virus called

    Forum-Troll-itis…

    where the infectee calls out an idiot and a fanboy… rants on games and consoles… but provides no real evidence to back up his argument…

    The only cure for it is a shotgun to the head… I hope kev gets cured as soon as possible…

  62. Royzy:

    ha, cheers kev! :D Yeh I hate it too. it went ok, just had to pitch my idea for a tv ident that will be used by an Internet TV site. Only lasted about 30 seconds, my storyboard was 5 frames on a bit of A4. They got the idea though.

  63. darkwhitehair:

    YOU SEE CARL!!! YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE NOT A WITCH HUNTER!!!

    Join me carl… join the side that has the BIG “Fucking Dragons”… togather… we will keel little shits like CON!!!

    DEATH TO ALL THE WITCH ELFS!!!

    Oooo RAH!!!!

  64. darkwhitehair:

    wtf??? Roy and kev are fwends…

    thats it… this means war… now I have to reach around… I mean reach across the aisle and recruit carl and harry…

    but you guys need change your name to KAZ “MOtherfucking” KUTARAGI…

    no exceptions…

  65. darkwhitehair:

    SELF PROMOTION!!!

    tinyurl.com/bmlumz

    SELF PROMOTION!!!

  66. SW:

    You warn us NOW about self promotion. What happened to the last 2 months?

  67. Arvis:

    BigMickyD,

    What “headless Arvis” post are you talking about?

    And I’m sorry you’ve been so hopelessly sucked into the classless internet void known as Gamer.Blorge… WELCOME!

    -Arvis

  68. SW:

    It was the post you typed without a head..?

    So BigMickyD for some reason made me look up Ramsey Street & Co.

    Neighbours, everybody needs good neighbours! With a little understanding! You can find the perfect bleeeeeeeennnnnnddd…

    I actually miss that show just a little.

    Well, I am done.

  69. darkwhitehair:

    YESSS BITCHES!!! Gameshitfly sent me a mail…

    I goan get Street fighter soon… WOOO HOO!

    hey arvis… if you dont like this site… I know another better void where you can waste your life…

    *WINK* *WINK*

  70. bigmickyd:

    again, CAD, i’m sorry… you guys both have 3 letter names in all caps starting with C…

    CON… your just proving my point… look im not “pro war” i don’t think we should be over there. BUT i do surport the people over there fighting in what the believe, not the govnerments, the soilders who are every day people giving up there lives… you want to have a go at me, then go over there and have a go at any bunch of them…

    DWH – the game i was reffering to was killzone 2, they have intel you have to collect abit like resistance but also theres logos on the wall you have to shoot, theres 3 in the first level though i only found one… found two in the second level though. (also did you notice kev started going off at me, BUT DIDNT MENTION HIS AGE???)

    ncaissie – wow bringing back the pay outs from the 80’s… congrats (j/k)

    kev – im not siding with anyone? harry just said he doesn’t have a ps3… i used to own a 360… im not having a goat 360, apart fromt he floor that everyone knows about… i was mainly having a go at you.

    Bourne – wtf? i’ve been on here for a day and im someones alter ego already? damn… im going to have to go to the video replay to see if this is a good or bad thing.

    phranctoast – well aware of his trend to his trend to shoot down anyone who isn’t willing to mount a 360 and make sweet sweet love to it just so it can breed and the 360 system lives on (yeah… off track a lil there)

    back OT and umm… well aus had a price drop for christmas? and its still dropped? ours droped about $80-100 (though ours are still in the $600-650 range… when i got mine it was a cool 1k)… though not to sure if that wasn’t just us lagging behind and coming up to speed with the rest of the world.

    back onto killzone 2… just a hint about the first boss.. make sure the guys on your team throwing grenades don’t die… or else you will be sitting there going “wtf… kid don’t die even though i shot his head and his back like the guy said” for 30minutes… i died and when i came back and did it, took me less then a minute (was seriously pissed by this point)

    P.S maybe i should shorten my posts?

  71. darkwhitehair:

    yeah bigmick… fuck it Im gonna call you mick… rule of thumb is… if its more than 2 paragraphs… blawg it…

    DONT FUCKING GIVE AWAY THE BOSS FIGHTS!!! RAWR!!!

    also I use websites like

    thesixthaxis and
    ps3trophies.org

    to find my trophies… but only use walkthroughs for games I hate… I will treat this bitch with respect and only use the walkthrough once I finish it…

    also dont worry bout Bourne… he’s a british… you know how uncultured they are… YOUR LOUSY ACCENT WONT SAVE YOU FROM ME BOURNE!!! damn you to hell

  72. bigmickyd:

    im not screwing the boss fight, im just saying, don’t let the guys around you die… it will get annoying, really annoying on the harder levels cause all they seems todo is sit in cover and not really shoot all that much

  73. CON:

    bigmickyd:

    You’re not pro war but you support the ppl who go there??? You’re contradicting yourself you fucking moron!!!

  74. darkwhitehair:

    wow…. WOW!!!!

    you know… CON… you sound a LOT like those people… you know those people who said…

    Youre either WITH US!!! Or youre AGAINST US!!!

    hmmm no it wasnt Star Wars… ohh yeah it was some guy who used to be in the White House…

    just WOW!!!!

  75. harry sachz:

    Damn, you shelled out $1000 for your PS3?

    I bought my brother in law KZ2 for his birthday last night, went to EB games who price matched with JB for $89 plus a collector’s tin. Will be playing it on Sunday.

    I picked up a copy of Street Fighter 4 while I was there and was playing it for some time last night. I am an old school SF2 player, so picking up Ken and Ryu was like riding a bike. What I found funny was the people who challenged me online must have seen my ‘n00b’ status when they were looking for a fight when they had unlocked all the characters etc. They must have been thinking that they were going to get easy wins/achivements out of me. It didn’t work well for some French kid who tried it on me, after beating him 7 times in a row I was copping all sorts of French expletives down the headset. I guess calling him a cheese eating surrender monkey and Pepe Le Pew didn’t help matters… well for him anyway.

  76. Royzy:

    Been playing K2 online. Feels like there is a slight delay on the ‘you just killed that person’ notification, I’d be interested to know what you think.

    Though the blip sound when you kill is quite satisfying, like on Half Life 2 when you kill a Combine. And Squads are cool, and the game modes and all the other stuff, ribbons, etc.

    I’m too tired to get into the online tonight, I’ll perhaps go on tomorrow. I’ll keep on with the Campaign for 20min then go bed.

    Clan name guys?

    Campaign is rocking though. They keep putting things in to surprise you, even if it is just to say ‘look at the graphics’.

  77. darkwhitehair:

    DAMN YOU!!! DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!!!

    WHAT THE HELL SONY!!! Why do these commie liberal hippies get Killzone 2 before us???

    WHYYYyyyyyyyyy!!!

    I swear to gawd… I… Will… KEEEEL… YOU!!!!

    in the zone… har har…

    clan name is

    TEH_JAGGAMARS

    I will make it… I dont want your frenchie commie hands all over it…

  78. Royzy:

    DWH, you gotta earn it baby. Got to complete 2 ranks in order to be able to make a clan.

    Looks like it should be easy to organise games too.

  79. darkwhitehair:

    ok… gotta get that adult sized diaper ready.. Im never leaving my couch again…

  80. darkwhitehair:

    YESSS!!! Best Buy opens at 8 o clock… gonna go…

    GONNA GO!!! then… Ima kick all yall ass…

  81. bigmickyd:

    Royzy about the online thing, honestly i wouldnt know, i tend to finish games through one player before jumping online.

    CON to put it in terms you can understand. let Xbox360 be anti war, let ps3 be pro war (in no way am i saying they are) atm, you are kev, anything to do with pro war, u instantly shoot down state that your views on your side are the only ones that matter, right, now my way ps3 is anti war and xbox360 is pro war, i own a ps3, but i can see why people would buy a 360 (surport the war) and believe the choice should be theres to make and surport them in there choice for it makes the industry (our country) a better place for being able to choose and not being forced one way or another.

    DWH whens it come out for you?

  82. darkwhitehair:

    IN 12 HOURS!!! OMG!! I CANT WAIT!!

    also… dont waste your time bigmick… I DIDNT KNOW YOU WERE AGAINST THE WAR!!! YOU COMMIE LIBERAL BIAS!!!

  83. bigmickyd:

    im not against war as a whole, i just didn’t feel australia needed to get involved with the U.S.A on this one, we sent a pretty small force over there and i didn’t really see the point.

    12 hours? hows my aussie ass taste now in this race war of yours :P

  84. darkwhitehair:

    thats it… THAT IS IT!!!

    I will not be *sniff* be discriminated *hick* against… because of *sniff* my… geogra *hick*

    I hate you guys… *sniff*

  85. bigmickyd:

    oh cry me a river, add my psn, bigmickyd, and i’ll play with you at some point over this weekend (friday night/saturday for you)

  86. bigmickyd:

    and another thing, i remember reading this was an australian run site, so why isn’t there any new articles to read on a friday lunch time???

  87. bigmickyd:

    oh and one more thing, someone wanna tell me how to knife in kz2? im using controller layout alternate 2 (cod4 layout) and to push the r3 button is to melee with bunt of the gun, yet in the bottum left hand corner of the screen it has a symbol for the knife next to the grenades… how do you use knife? and it is possible to set it up so you only ever knife no melee kills?

  88. darkwhitehair:

    you have to select the knife manually… its not like cod where melee is automatically knife…

  89. bigmickyd:

    that will be rather gay online then, are melees one hit kill online?

  90. Royzy:

    If you press the D-Pad right, he will equip it but slash at the same time, so you can get a kill in as you equip on the fly.

  91. Royzy:

    They aren’t one hit kills I don’t think, sometimes they die, sometimes they don’t. I guess you need a few rounds (or someone else put in a few rounds) to soften them up first.

  92. Royzy:

    Actually I think it is about the same as on Campaign, probably depends where you hit.

    The knife is one hit kill on campaign usually, so I guess it would be online too (haven’t tried knife online).

  93. bigmickyd:

    well ive noticed in Campaign if you melee front on, they die, if you do it from behind they tend to turn around and unload a clip… that and habe you noticed that head shots arn’t always a kill? that got really annoying just before you get into the tank and you doing that whole fighting above the flood gate

  94. Royzy:

    I think I know what you mean, but I haven’t experienced it often, if I do I’m not always convinced I hit it (and if I did it could of been the helmet). I’m usually aiming to blow the helmet off so I can get that trophy, rather than the actual head (unless it is with the shotgun, which is too satisfying not to pop melons with).

  95. bigmickyd:

    haven’t got the shot gun yet, i’m only a little past the first boss, i only got about 2 or so hours on it last night by the time i got home, hoping to get 2-3 more tonight before i head out for the night (friday night out here)
    add my psn, ill play with you at some point tomorrow its bigmickyd

    This is an interesting line from Sony.

    No price cuts until and only when the unit reaches profitability and stays profitable after any cuts.

    That is pretty much an official admission that guarantees the PS3 is donalded (donald ducked) in this gen.

    There is simply no credible way they can sell enough units to catch nevermind pass the total Xbox sales numbers; not in the 2 or 3 years now left until the next next gen comes along.

    That’s pretty stunning news, actually.

    I said it once before and it is singularly apt now, ‘how the mighty are fallen’.
    All just to pi$$ the brand up the wall in a failed attempt to pursue video format royalties.
    Incredible.

  97. SW:

    And I’m sure the 10+ million PS3 owners couldn’t give a fuck.

  98. phranctoast:

    SW.
    Its closer to 21+ million.

  99. SW:

    21+ million is 10+ million ;)

    As you can tell, I don’t follow the sales figures.

  100. phranctoast:

    lol..true true
