Wow, didn’t expect that. Sony has announced effective today that the Sony Playstation 3 can be purchased for the low amount of $249.99. for the 160GB model. This puts the PS3 50 dollars above the Microsoft Xbox 360 which starts at $199.99 ($299.99 with a bundled Kinect) and 100 dollars above the $149.99 Nintendo Wii. No word if this will also affect the 320GB PS3 model but I’d imagine it eventually will.
And who wins out? We do, the gamers! Good call Sony.
