Looks like this holiday season is already kicking off tremendously for the PlayStation 3. With the recent announcement of the 40GB PS3 set at a price of $399, gamers all over who did not already own a PS3, immediately began to ponder about purchasing one.

Proof of that concept shows with the CompUSA online store as the 40GB PS3 which comes with the Spiderman 3 Blu-ray packed inside, is sold out. Yes, that is right, sold out until more stock comes in. This is an instant reminder to around this time last year when the PS3 was in high demand. Consider that it is still early in November and we are nowhere near Black Friday. So if you are one of pose individuals that will be seeking out a 40GB PS3 either for yourself or as a gift for another, then please do not take this likely and make sure that you snag one as soon as possible.

    October NPD will be the start of something interesting as it will be interesting to see how people value a 500 doller 80gb and then there will also be 2 days of 40gb sales , then Nov and Dec NPD's will be real interesting as well, I wonder if people will mass chose the 40gb at 400 and cause Sony to discontinue the 80, similar to what happen to the 20 and 60 earlier.

    who cares about ps2 games anyway. sales of the 40gb are not going to be affected by their inability to play ps2 games. ps2 games look like crap on the ps3. i'd rather watch water boil than play a ps2 game.

    Well, The main reason for the PS2 Backwards compatibility was important for the PS3 launch was to allow people to play the games they already had, since there weren't a lot of launch titles when it was first released. And I was very happy to know that I could still play all my PS2 games on the PS3 and this was my major selling point when I purchased it last year (20Gig model BTW) I was very impressed with the PS3 right out of the box. Now that there are a lot of titles coming out for PS3, this will become less important in the future to a lot of people. But, I personally like to know that for all that money I spent, I can still play the PS2 titles anyway. But I know a lot of people will still be happy with the 40 Gig model, especially if this is someones first console. I have about 100 PS2 games and only about 12 PS3 games right now, and I still use my PS2 games.

    It's just too bad kids don't get gifts like the PS3 earlier than Christmas so they can ask for games.
