My Thursday night with PS3 Slim and PSP Go
No.. I haven't bought them... yet, this post is about the official launch of PS3 Slim and PSP Go at MKG 3 on Thursday night.
So, that night I went to MKG3 to see this event. It was held in the atrium of MKG3, lots of people coming to this place, and of course lots of PS3 Slim, PSP Go & PSP 300x to play with.I must say I was a bit surprised with this (the official launch), because since their first gaming console, the Sony Playstation 1, Sony has never been officially launch their gaming system in Indonesia. So this is a bit new, does this means that Sony are pretty confident that their new gaming system is unhackable? :D
But one thing remain the same for me, it's the price :D
Ok so let's see...
- the event was held in one of the biggest Mall in the city? - checked,
- host by the official product company (Sony Indonesia) ? - checked,
- got an official 1 year warranty from the official product company (Sony Indonesia) ? - checked
- and you can also find the product sold at their official store (Sony Center) ? - checked.
Ok so that's it, it's an official product from their official company with less "official" price :D
I won't tell the price here, you just have to go down there to check that by yourself, BUT if you want to know what I think about the price.. well... It's expensive, period.
The PS3 slim got the same price with my phat PS3 that I bought around 4 months ago, and the PSP Go? It has the same price as an Xbox 360 in Mangga Dua :D
So if you bought them there.. you'll get about $100 more expensive than if you bought them at the "unofficial" local store (Mangga Dua), then of course the later won't have an official warranty from Sony Indonesia.
Enough with the price bashing, let's see on the bright side, Indonesia now has the official store in town, so if you got some problem with your PS3 or PSP you can brought them there and let them have a look, if they can't fix them, let's just go back to our trusted old place.. Mangga Dua (PSE or Deltasky, both are a pretty good shop you know) :D
Oh when I'm on the verge of leaving the event, The Indobeatbox Community are take on the stage! thus prevented me to go home.. :P
They showcase their beatboxing skills for about 30-45 minutes, and I think their performance is awesome! it's just da bomb! xD
