HM Smith has become the first major High Street PS3 stockist to significantly cut the price point of the machine.

For a limited time only, the store is selling the console for £399.99 – a full £25 less than the system is sold elsewhere.

The offer, which is only available in larger stores, will end next Tuesday, 10th of April, after the Easter Bank Holiday weekend.

WH Smith has taken out an advert on page 13 in today’s The Sun newspaper to promote the deal.


Update:
Play.com has bettered WH Smith’s offer of a £399.99 PS3 by selling the console with extra items for the same price.

The online stockist includes an HDMI cable and a Blu-Ray film – Adam Sandler vehicle Click – in the package, which is sold for a full £25 less than Sony’s suggested retail price.



Personally I believe they R afraid they won't sell any more PS3's, seeing as how its sales dropped 82% last week.

£25 isn't significant, its like, the price of a controller, which since Europe gets screwed over everything PS3 controllers are probably the price of games.

Banjo Kazooie? That was Microsoft, since they bought RARE, so they get Conker and Banjo.

Dude, Nintendo wanted to get rid of RARE because they weren't producing any more good Games after the days of the N64. All their good dev.teams R gone, it's just the name that's left. With the exception of Kameo- Element of Power, how many good titles did RARE give Microsoft?? Exactly ;) .
