Haven't I Heard That Somewhere Before?

Hey, remember when we reported on the whole PS3 20g going bust thing HERE?
Looks like it is finally getting reported in the mainstream news.

Best Buy has dropped the 20 gig PS3 from its stores, citing that 80% of the sales were for the 60 GB model...

Let me be among the first to proclaim the 20 gig PS3 officially dead. When Best Buy stopped selling them it was one thing, but when Sony stops carrying them in their stores? I think that's pretty much the nail in the coffin.

I say good riddance, this multiple-tiered system for consoles confused consumers and really did them no favor.

Once again, Fuel the Rebellion ruins the curve for everyone else.

Yeah, we know. We rock. Feel free to comment on our greatness.

PS3 Puts It Out There

Here's a friendly reminder from Fuel the Rebellion: Get out the Cheez-Its, throw some Coke in a cooler and stock up on TP this weekend, gamers. Insomniac Games' designers (i.e. the guys that created Resistance: Fall of Man) will be online tomorrow at 8 EST (5 PST) to school you on how the game was meant to be played. You'll find them right there with the custom matches.

That's right, just Man vs Chimera (and thousands of your friends watching to see you screw up).

Whoa! PS 3 20G is HISTORY ALREADY??!!!

First, we heard this:

When Joystiq spoke with Sony’s David Karraker earlier this week he told us, Overwhelmingly, retailers have been requesting the 60GB model, the mix has been about 80 percent 60GB, 20 percent 20GB retailer orders.” With Best Buy’s decision to no longer carry the unit, a major retailer has walked away from the 20GB table, obviously the margins were better on the 60GB model. Sony says they are still producing 20GB models

[via Joystiq]

BUT NOW? Hot off the presses, folks! According to Joystiq, Best Buy has decided to CANCEL any orders for the PS 3 20G due to underwhelming demand. Here's the printout to prove it:
