Unless I have misread this or I have totally lost my mind but the 250GB PS3 come out about 3-4 weeks ago. The GAME I work in has been selling it for Ł285 while the 120 GB is still Ł250.

give CVG a break. we've known for years they're behind with their news by about 2-3 weeks. thats when they're not ripping it directly from kotaku or their videos from gametrailers.

lol, cvg get more and more hilarious.

i cant believe they get paid to do their jobs. its embarrasingm, they need a staff clearout when stories like this come out.

Pretty much every major site I visit has run this story, so I', not sure why you guys are having a pop at CVG.

Gamespot remembered to say that the console was already out in the UK where as this site have gone to Sony for the UK release. I think it is fair to have a pop at them for this one.

Fair enough. Give 'em hell people! Cool

Think amazon were or are still doing one for 260 with inFamous and a choice of 2 other games between Fifa 10, Killzone 2 or Uncharted Drakes Fortune.

pmsl at news story i was like nov? didnt they know it launched alongside the PSP Go...turns out no...
Del-007 on 16 Oct '09
My bad (go easy - industry events last night)... Embarassed

All changed.
CVG Mike on 16 Oct '09
CVG said in their article:

"The 250GB console is currently available in UK for Ł284.99."

But I dont know why they seem to highlight its release in the US as of any importance.

News running dry today CVG???? hmmmmmmmmm

thats because if you cared to read the post above yours, you would realise they have just changed it.

For me its no excuse to be 'gaming since 1981' and not know what consoles are currently out.

Well, the news they posted on the Twitter/Facebook beta was pretty fast considering most news sites posted about it in the afternoon/evening whereas CVG posted it in the morning. So they're not always that bad.

all male cvg staff wear pink tutu's i heard, im not saying it i justy heard someone else say it
martinawatson on 16 Oct '09
whilst i agree that CVG is neither the best for the latest news, they clearly state that the 250GB is on sale in the uk. They just seem to be informing us that is set to go on sale now in the US

Any ho, i got a 250GB earlier this week from amazon Ł270 with infamous, fifa 10 and wet

fantastic deal and the slim is a lovely looking piece of kit
