I get the impression from EG that this 80GB pack is minus backwards compatibility – it’s just a 40GB with a bit more storage. Which sucks.
Anyway, does this mean a discount is in the offering for the 40GB model? And I presume nothing’s been said about Europe yet…

Certainly seems that way. Exactly the same as the 40gb pack, but with twice as much drive. I wonder why, then, he commented on ‘making the transition as easy as possible for PS2 owners’. Weird. I guess it’ll at least have the DS3 packed in now.
No mention of Europe though. As usual.

Idiots. People weren’t buying the 80gb for the extra storage space.

What the blinkering fuck is going on with the site? It’s slower than a ZX81.
