“PS3 markets system with added features!”

Santa Monica, California – Sony has finally decided to cut the cost of its precious Playstation 3 on the eve of the E3 conference, where nerds and journalists go to play video games. The $100 price cut will make the PS3 only a somewhat ridiculous $499. This is in response to the beating Sony has been taking by Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii. Jack Tretton, president and CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment America, said:

We march to the beat of our own drummer. No one believed in product-life cycles of more than five years, but we proved it with the original PlayStation and we’ve seen the benefits of that in the PS2. And now we’re doing same thing with the PS3. It comes with considerable investment for consumers and developers, but it will pay off.

The only investment consumers are getting is a guaranteed spot in the poor people line. As to whether there is a drum to march to on that one has been unconfirmed.

Wii pimp smacked: Sony.
