Sony announced that Korea will be getting the 80GB PS3 next month, but Europe will not be shown the same love. This might catch some by surprise, but think about the ‘success’ Sony experienced when the 60GB PS3 was launched last month. They certainly don’t need stacks upon stacks of PS3’s laying around while consumers are snatching up the larger capacity units, right? And any rumor of a modified Bluetooth on the 80GB Korean rig or any 80GB rig has been smashed.

No plans to bring 80GB PS3 to Europe, says Sony [Game Industry Biz]
