More gaming updates (I'll have non-gaming news today, promise). Sony announced its pricing scheme for the PS3, saying that for a $499 system you get a model with a 20 GB hard drive. Well, that wasn't exactly the whole story.
The $499 model will also lack Hi-Def video output (making the Blu-Ray player pointless), WiFi (which isn't a big deal since if you have WiFi, you have ethernet), and a memory card reader. It's also possible that this model will only ship with wired controllers (you could still purchase wireless controllers, but c'mon), and that 20 GB Hard Drive will not be upgradable. Ouch.
Adding all that together, I think they took our a little more then $100 worth. While the last two items are still just rumor, that seriously sucks. I think it'd just be worth spending the extra cash and getting it all. Of course, that's probably exactly what Sony is hoping for.
