PSA: 40 Gig On Sale Today!

Remember everyone! If you’re looking for a new Playstation 3, the new $399 SKU packed in with Spider-Man 3 (Blu-Ray, not game) should be available starting today. The new model, of course, lacks backwards compatibility with Playstation 2 titles (due to the complete removal of chipsets on the motherboard that deal with such things) and two USB slots. Sporting a mid-range hard drive with 40 gigabytes of space, the new machine reportedly runs even quieter than other PS3 SKUs.

Though it may lack certain features, it finally puts the system closer in price range to the Xbox 360, which makes it a good opportunity for people to “jump in” if they’re interested in the games the Playstation 3 has to offer.
