No 120GB PS3 for UK, says Sony

Sony Computer Entertainment Europe has told our sister site GamesIndustry.biz there are no plans to introduce a 120GB PlayStation 3 round these parts.

Rumours such a model will appear in the US began circulating earlier in the week. According to Ars Technica, it'll come with a DualShock 3 controller and will retail for the same price as the 80GB Spider-Man 3 bundle.

SCEA has yet to comment on the rumours, but SCEE is less shy. "We do not currently have any plans to release a 120GB PlayStation 3 in the UK," a spokesperson said.

Sony has hinted in the past it could release PS3 units with bigger hard drives if there is enough demand.
