Konami merges California offices
http://www.gamespot.com/news/6169247.html
no more Norcal Office
Redwood City operations to be consolidated with El Segundo branch "to maximize the strategic collaboration" for growth by end of July.
Konami today announced that it will be shrinking the number of offices it maintains in the US to accommodate for growth later on. By the end of July, the company's Californian offices in El Segundo and Redwood City will be consolidated within the former city in Southern California "to maximize the strategic collaboration for the future digital entertainment growth of the company."
"In order to grasp the rapid change of entertainment trends and take timely strategic action, having all functions under one roof is critical," said Konami Digital Entertainment chairman and CEO Kazumi Kitaue.
The company did not say if the change would necessitate layoffs. A Konami representative had not returned GameSpot's request for comment as of press time.

PS3 80GB comingsoon??

Sony readying 80GB PS3?
What we heard: Last week, Sony unceremoniously discontinued the 20GB PlayStation 3 in North America. Taken at its word, the move was a sensible consolidation, as the company felt that, "based on retailer and consumer feedback, we have decided to focus our current efforts on the more popular 60GB model."
Today, though, the Internet was alight with word that Sony might be pondering a new model of its controversial next-generation console. Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. spokesman Satoshi ***uoka reportedly told Bloomberg that the electronics giant is considering a PS3 with a higher-capacity hard drive than the 60GB model. No specific size was mentioned, but that did not stop MCV from speculating the new edition would have a 80GB HDD--40GB less than the forthcoming Xbox 360 Elite, which sports a 120GB HDD.
The official story: Unsurprisingly, Sony reps were vague about any to-be-announced PS3 product. "We are constantly looking at new technologies, services and configurations to meet the evolving needs of our PlayStation gamers," said Sony Computer Entertainment America PR chief Dave Karraker. "At this time, we have no announcement regarding any changes in our PS3 product offering in North America."
Bogus or not bogus?: Not bogus that somewhere deep in the bowels of Sony's R&D department, a new, higher-capacity PS3 SKU is being debated. Bogus that any size--including 80GB--has been officially announced.

well with the xbox the push for the bigger hd is b/c they offer all the tv shows through xbl and even in hd that u can download aside from demos and all of that. so 20gb just isnt enough. heck i came close to running out before just from d/l demos of games lol.
as far as the ps3 having a bigger hd unless they are gonna offer it for the same price as the 60gb version nobody is gonna buy it. if nobody wants to spend 600 for the 60gb version who is gonna spend even more money for 20gb more space
