They're charging a premium now so they can fix their damn servers.
It's not just adding an EE, there are many other components associated with the EE. When looking at the circuit board of the 60GB vs. the 80GB (where the PS2 components are), there's a pretty big difference. And by adding more components and such, more current is used; therefore, higher wattage (basically more expensive) components are needed. Manufacturing a PS3 with GS + EE lost Sony around $240+ and even with a few cost reductions now, they'd still take a massive loss with it. That's why they ditched the SKU and it's never coming back (from what I do hear, the 80GB consoles used for the MGS4 may very well be MotorStorm bundles which didn't reach retail at the time).Cruzader said:yup i mean if the chip is 27 bucks..cmon, just leave it in there, right?![]()
I think more "hard core" gamers would buy those since tons of ppls seem to dislike the 40GB one.

Killthee said:That's ridiculous. What happens if your system is stolen on it's way to you? Do you lose the $500 and must pay another $500 for the replacement system's insurance?
DancingCactus77 said:It's a surprise that Konami is springing on their customers. Are you surprised? :lol
