UK retailers reveal that PS3 stock is drying up as Cologne's Gamescom event approaches...

UK retailers have fuelled rumours of an impending PS3 price cut by revealing that sourcing PS3 stock in the region has been a challenge for the last few weeks, while supply lines apparently won't be restocked until September.

This news comes from MCV, where two of the UK's major retailers revealed the stock issues and an anonymous spokesperson for one retailer told the site, "Sourcing PS3 stock has been a challenge for the last two to three weeks."

"There are obviously lots of rumours flying about as to why that might be," the source continued. "I don't think it's to do with demand, though. Sales are low at the moment and have been for a while. We've been told not to expect any further hardware deliveries until September."

Elsewhere across the web, reports have surfaced of a mocked-up PS3 Slim image on the cover of a Hong Kong games magazine. The magazine allegedly suggests that the console will be unveiled at next week's Gamescom event in Cologne, where Sony is set to keynote a one hour speech on Tuesday.

@ Robert Young: Try Sony and Microsoft's actual financial reports. They are the only reliable source for worldwide console sales/shipments.

My previous blog of 360 lead over PS3 is not "guess estimate". Those numbers were taken from a reputable website that unfortunately, this website prohibited me from quoting. This website is so reputable that companies use their numbers for their own studies; videochartz......

Well it is August 2011 now, PS3 fanboys. Where is the lead of PS3 "overtaking" the 360 by January 2011? Yeah, the PS3 sales are inching closer to the 360 but, as of Aug 2011, it is still that - "inching closer". As of August 2011, the worldwide lead of 360 over PS3 is 3.4 million. The U.S. lead of 360 over PS3 is 12.282 million. Also, here in the U.S., as of Dec 2008, the 360 lead was 7.98 mil. As of Dec 2009, the 360 lead was 8.64 mil. As of Dec 2010, the 360 lead was 11.34 mil. And that brings us to Aug. 2011. So, don't predict stuff that will fall flat on your faces, LOL ;-)..........

well the welcome back pack finally arrived yesterday and what a mess it was, i guess sony thought it was a good idea to release it in all regions rather than america first moving roung the globe in a way that would not hinder people from getting the free content or causing a lot of confusion when people saw the "get now" link vanish and had to look for guides as to get their free content.

 

one thing i didnt know about the welcome back pack was the inclusion of 3 FREE full HD movie rentals, if you didnt know about it look on the XMB in the orange box (under account management) and you should find it though i think it expires on the 5th (sunday,tomorrow) so get them while you can.
