Hey man, I am a frequent traveller from KL to Sgpore. The official price for PS3 in Spore is SGD$599 from 40GB which is equall to RM1389.68 (convert by 2.32). Sony Spore only rlease PS3 40GB. 20GB is a release only in Europe and if u buy the 20GB, ur warranty is from europe. Same for 80GB, it is release in Japan and Europe including the US. I 100% know this rates coz I was thinking about either buying in spore or KL. Mostly in KL, now, the sellers will sell the PS3 around RM1600! And that is just a bunch of crap! The games in Spore is around SGD$80-SGD$110= RM186.60-RM255.20. But most places i see, that the sellers are putting the PS3 games at RM300!!!! What a bunch of liars! If you think i am giving false info, you can ask any of your friends or forum dudes in spore to verify my statement. Ive done a lot of research before buying my PS3 coz I want the best price and i dont want t be cheated. For now, before the official PS3 launch, the PS3 price is around RM1600, but i think when PS3 officially launch in msia, the price will drop coz the real price will be shown only at SOny offcial store. So before you buy the product, read and gather info around so you wont be easily cheated, especially the warranty. No offence to this fellow blogger, but your price is wrong and your information is partly wrong. Try to gather more info about the PS3 man. Read the Sony PS3 official release articles please….

G: Check the dates on this post. It was made nearly 2 years ago when PS3 first launched. But thanks for the price update :)

Guys,

the pricing in Malaysia is high. I can get a Xbox-360 in US costs like only RM976. I am here right now and PS-3, is cheaper than what we have in Malaysia. RM2k plus is way too high. Its around USD200++. I am getting one here.

G: RM2k+ is the old price. It has dropped significantly but it’s definitely still high. If you’re in the US, then definitely get a unit there. The game consoles here are usually brought in from the US so you’ll essentially be getting the same machine.

whoa coool!erm how bout the games??are they about 200Rm++??or maybe less??do the games come from US or Japan?thanx for answering my questions.helped me alot!

G: Original games are in the RM200 vicinity, yes. Mostly from the US. But it really depends on the console that you get. If it’s a Japanese console, it will only play Japanese games while US consoles play only games from the US region. Both are available. There are of course modified consoles that can play all regions.

G: Yes, you can get it in Malaysia. The prices have dropped considerably since this post was made. The PS3 now goes for around RM2300, if I remember correctly. In terms of quality, it shouldn’t differ that much. The machines here are brought in from US.

A bit pricey there! The Wii costs around P19,700 here in the Philippines. Not sure how you convert, but US$1 : P48.5

G: That’s about RM1460. Definitely cheaper.

hey, the post was really useful. i will be visiting bangkok in a few days and was planning to pick up one from there. the price of 15,500 thb mentioned here is for the core console or the complete console?

G: Talking about the XBox 360, right? It’s the basic box set consisting of core console (fully modified), controllers and a few games thrown in but minus the extended accessories such as the harddisk.
