This is definitely on the better side of Sony news -- especially for those gamers in Europe strapped for cash! Well, sort of. Pay special note to the "may be offering" part of the subject. This hasn't been confirmed officially by Sony or by European store GAME (the biggest UK gaming store chain), but a Sony rep did say: "that the GAME group and Sony were planning to offer interest free credit on the console, allowing gamers to pay off the cost of their PS3 for just a few pounds a month over a year."You know, this actually makes a lot of sense, as RPGSite put it and we'll reiterate. Most consumer electronics over a certain amount have this kind of option (computers, high-end TV's) but this is the first time the option has been offered specifically for a video game specialty store. It comes with a lot of forms to fill out, so take a pen to the store with you if this gets confirmed. While the price is still high, you'll be hard-pressed to find someone complaining about paying £35 a month instead of the full £425. What do you guys think? Would this be a smart maneuver, or would you rather plop down the full amount right away?
