06.10.2007 - Sony annuncia una PS3 con disco da 40Gb e prezzo di €399

Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) ha diffuso ieri, mediante il comunicato stampa allegato di seguito, alcuni dettagli in merito alla nuova Playstation 3 con disco da 40Gb che sarà lanciata nel mercato europeo il prossimo 10 Ottobre al prezzo di €399.

Sony ha motivato la sua offerta, che si fa subito notare per il costo d'acquisto molto contenuto ove si consideri la tipologia di prodotto, con la volontà di rendere disponibile un "entry point nel mondo del gaming e dell'entertainment ad Alta Definizione" (si pensi, ad esempio, ai film sui supporti Blu-ray, ndr).

La nuova PS3 include dei miglioramenti apportati in virtù del feedback degli utenti: il numero di porte USB 2.0, ad esempio, è stato ridotto da quattro a due mentre è stata definitivamente eliminata la porta ibrida per le memory card.

La nuova PS3 non è retrocompatibile con i game PS2; in compenso "65 titoli di ogni genere saranno disponibili dal prossimo natale".


Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) today announced details of its new PLAYSTATION 3 40GB model that will be launched throughout Europe on October 10th 2007 at a price of €399 (£299).

The new PS3 is being introduced to provide an affordable entry point into the world of High Definition gaming and entertainment, and includes all the features central to the PLAYSTATION 3 experience; true next generation gameplay, High Definition Blu-ray Disc movies, SIXAXIS Wireless Control, and Wireless Internet and HDMI connectivity, all powered by the Cell Broadband Engine, the digital heart of PS3.

The specification of the new 40GB model has been determined following feedback from thousands of PS3 owners, and features two USB 2.0 ports rather than four and no longer includes the multi memory card port.

The new 40GB model is also no longer backwards compatible with PlayStation 2 titles. This is due to a reduced emphasis placed on this feature by later purchasers of PS3, as well as the availability of a more extensive line-up of PS3 specific games, which will number a total of 65 titles across all genres by Christmas 2007.

As with the PLAYSTATION 3 60GB, the 40GB model features system software updates allowing new features and functionality to be added to the system as time progresses.

In the UK and Ireland, a Value Pack consisting of a 60GB PS3 with extensive backwards compatibility and two first party titles will be on sale at a price of €499 (£349). Remaining on sale while stocks last, the 60GB model represents outstanding value for the keen gamer wishing to upgrade to the High Definition capabilities of PS3. Once stocks are exhausted the new 40GB model will be the only one available in the SCEE territories.

"The introduction of the 40GB model has been the result of extensive research into the entertainment needs and preferences of the next generation of PS3 owners," said David Reeves, President of SCEE. "It has allowed us to deliver an extremely advanced, yet highly affordable High Definition gaming and entertainment system, configured to the needs of the next generation of European PS3 owners. PS3 has always been the device of choice for the discerning gamer and entertainment seeker, and the new 40GB model is more than ever the perfect High Definition entertainment system."
