80GB landing in stores on August 12th - Probably

According to Amazon.com the 80GB PS3, that was announced at E3 earlier this month, will be released on August the 12th. While pre-orders are not yet available, you can sign up for email alerts for when they finally are. The 80GB package will contain Motorstorm in the box to go with your extra 20GB. Is that worth an extra $100 dollars over the price of the 60GB model? We're still not convinced.

So if you're desperate to spend, arguably, more money than perhaps you should on a PS3 then you only have twelve days to wait. Having said that, however, we wouldn't be surprised if the release date changed once or twice before final release. They're fickle like that.
