Since Sony has already confirmed that their upcoming next generation console, aptly called the Sony PS4, has been confirmed for a 2013 debut, it is a no brainer that the current PS3 stalwart is well on its way out. By no means is it going to be obsolete, since folks living in developing countries who are on the lookout for some video game entertainment might bite on the PS3 with the entry price point having dropped to reasonable levels now, and Sony knows that the PS3 is a cow that they can continue milking – at least for now, which is why there is word that Sony will be introducing a PS3 Legacy bundle which will cost $299.
It is interesting to note that the last $500 bundle that hit the market before this came with a 500GB PS3, Assassin’s Creed III, and 30 days of PlayStation Plus membership, so to know how much bang for your hard earned buck has gotten you, the Legacy bundle would have all of the mentioned in terms of hardware, accompanied by 30 days of PS Plus, Gran Turismo 5 XL and inFamous 2 – meaning you have one additional game to enjoy right out of the box. Some folks prefer to wait until the PS4 is released, hoping that this move would signal another round of price drops for the aged PS3.
