It hasn't been confirmed but the advertisment shows what may be a PS3 selling at $499

If it goes that cheap I'm buying a second one. Leave one at home, and the other for travel, or going to peoples houses. That's effing sweet, if true.

AND Madden 07 for free.
But then again, Madden 08 comes out in a few months... But I really don't give a ****, I don't even play football :lol: .

I'm sure this might jumpstart a few people buying one.

That wouldn't be such a bad deal at all. Too bad the only way I could afford it is to sell my Elite, which will NOT happen lol.

Nevermind. Sony went on the record today and dismissed the price cut speculations. Read here (http://today.reuters.com/news/articlenews.aspx?type=internetNews&storyID=2007-07-06T101239Z_01_T50134_RTRUKOC_0_US-SONY.xml&pageNumber=0&imageid=&cap=&sz=13&WTModLoc=NewsArt-C1-ArticlePage2).

"Good news for gamers, if it turns out to be true. According to GameDaily, the earlier report of a PlayStation 3 US$ 100 price cut now has some kind of confirmation.



After some nosing around, the guys at GameDaily got to talk with a merchandising manager for the electronics retailer who confirmed the rumored price-cut (which will drop the price tag of Sony's console to US$ 499).

The anonymous manager also went on to say that the price cut is "retail-wide", meaning the said price cut was given by SCEA. The hundred dollar price cut will supposedly take place on July 12, though the ads hailing it will go live a couple of days later on July 15."

How pissed would you be if you bought the $499 20gb model and could have gotten the 60gb for the same price lol

Anonymous Target and Best Buy moles are also backing up the nation wide $100 PS3 price cut as well.

Now at this rate how long do you speculate it'll be let's say $200? Or at this rate maybe, hopefully, $100.

Seriously, you can't even get a brand new PS2 for 100 bucks right now. You think a PS3, which was far more expensive to start with, would get down that low ? C'mon, think logically. =p

I can't believe Ranhco Cucamonga made the list. That's my future hometown! If you read some of the digg (http://digg.com/playstation_3/PS3_price_drop_already_in_effect_Target_store_sell s_today_at_499_99) comments, one user mentioned that this could be a clearance issue to make way for the new 90nm technology model. Check out ps3fanboy's site (http://www.ps3fanboy.com/2007/07/06/ps3-sold-at-target-for-499-99/ ).
