Almost seems worth it for the blu-ray alone. My wife will not be too happy with another console in the house, but...

i thought the blu-ray movies deal was over long time ago. Anyone knows about the new version of PS3 after the 40/80 GB?

Yeah--are these deals even verified or just ripped from other sites?
The 5 free movies deal is over and the 80GB is unavailable there or anywhere. There is a re-release of the 80GB coming June 12 with a different game (Metal Gear Solid) and the new Sixaxis 3 rumble controller:

DVD Promotion ended earlier this year. Long gone, comes with nothing free. Good news is the 100 credit to your card is fairly quick (Card is offered through chase fyi). Which is nice because I already bank with Chase and it appeared on my online info.

BluRays is great, also 2.0 future proof which is something to think about when buying a unit these days.

The new Ps3 isnt coming out till july, thats most likely just a re-packed version. I think they are making a "new" ps3, all speculation on my side, but I've heard it'll be coming out with the new dual shock controller (Vibrates). And that may make improvements on power/cooling (I heard it might be like the ps2 evolution they may reduce the size). Also heard it could be "White" like thew new Dual shock controllers. Lots of speculation not much really concrete I've seen yet. Hard drives are pretty easy to upgrade as is already, so bumping it to 120/160 might happen.

$100 for 40GB is a ripoff. Typical Sorny upsell tactics

I'm waiting until there's a definite winner in the DVD war.

I'm so tired with this deal.
How if I cancel the Sony card after a month?

I did this deal in early January. $100 credit appeared before I could even pay the card off (first billing cycle). I paid it off immediately, so it was $300 for one of the best blu ray players on the market. sux balllzzzzz as far as gaming is concerned.....

Back then the 5 free blu rays was still going, but I have yet to receive them, its been 10 weeks now.

#6, how much more "definite" are you looking for? Want Toshiba to burn their patent?

My K-Mart had some 80GB's this week, they were also running a special if you bought it you got one of four games free. Offer ends on Saturday.

LMAO @ #9....

THanks #3, I will go for one if the PS2 emulation is hardware based.

#9 He was referring to the DVD war. As in Blue Ray vs DVD. Not HD DVD vs Blue Ray. It's yet to be scene if consumers will shell out the extra money for HD players & movies vs cheap DVDs and DVD players.

#13, what is "Blue Ray"? Is that some kind of new fish? I thought Sony only makes Blu-Ray.

I still don't get how this is a deal. When I signed up for the Sony card long ago they gave you a flat $100 statement credit on ANY purchase over $100. They didn't restrict it to PS3 only.


They add restrictions to qualifying purchases to only PS3's from only one retailer : SonyStyle, and somehow people buy into this becuase it's a PS3. I guess that's called successful marketing

When can I play fun games like found in Wii on PS3? Do you think it's possible?

Quality of DVD movies playing through PS3 is better than playing through most of upconverting DVD players.

dear #16 probably next week.
dear #17 stfu

So $300 for a PS3 is pretty good. Is it worth it or does the 40G kill this deal? Hell, why do you need so much space anyway (80G+)?
