PlayStation 3 Increasing Hard Drive Capacity

By Ryan Fleming August 17, 2010

Sony today announced that two new PS3 bundles are on the way this fall, and each will offer larger hard drives.

The first will be the 160GB model that will replace the current 120GB bundles that sell for $300. The price will remain the same, the only difference will be the increased hard drive capacity. The 160GB model is shipping now, and should be on shelves as soon as the current stock is sold through.

The second new bundle will feature a 320GB hard drive, and will be included in the PS3 Sports Champions Move bundle. This bundle will include the PlayStation Move controller, one Move game, the PlayStation Eye camera and a bonus blu-ray demo disc for $400. The Sports Champion bundle will be on shelves September 19 as part of the Move launch.

Cloud,. Aerith, and Tifa stand together in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.

It's summer, which means it's time to stock up on video games. Thankfully, you'll have a lot of chances to do that without breaking the bank this year as June tends to be a big month for game sales. Sony is kicking off that trend a few days early with its annual Days of Play sale, which offers some major discounts on everything from recent hits to new releases.

This year's sale includes over 900 games, and there are a lot of great options. Of course, who wants to spend time scrolling through 39 pages of discounts? I'm here to help save you the trouble so you can spend more time gaming. I combed through every deal and picked out eight in particular that stand out.

PlayStation State of Play, May 2024: How to watch and what to expect

Sony is off to a fairly strong start in 2024, with games like The Last of Us Part II Remastered, Rise of the Ronin, and Stellar Blade, but the PS5's lineup for the back half of the year is still shrouded in mystery. Thankfully, a new State of Play stream is imminent. We're hoping that the 30-minute presentation gives us a new look at Until Dawn's remake and Firewalk Studios' multiplayer game Concord, as well as some surprises.

Although it isn't a full-blown PlayStation Showcase, it's definitely still worth tuning into for PS5 owners. If you're planning to do so, you're also probably wondering when and how to watch it. To help, we've rounded up all relevant information about the event so you can be ready when the livestream begins today.
When is May 2024's State of Play?
Sony has confirmed that the May 2024 State of Play presentation will start airing live today at 3 p.m. PT. According to the PlayStation Blog, it will be a "30+ minute show," so set some time aside to watch it tomorrow afternoon.
