    I dunno about Joe but a PS3 puts me closer to the American Dream.

    #6 and #7, you guys opened and closed the card within a month. So, will you get BAD credit? In other words, believe me, your credit points be cut down a lot.

    You are a effing moron. I must have looked at 10000 credit reports in my life, and I hear people talk about what they "think" they know about them every day. Stop talking stupid $h1t.

    Here's the scoop, Ghetto Dogs...whether you keep a card a week or a decade, the only things that matter are 1) pay your bill on time (you can even go up to 29 days past your due date) an 2)don't max out the card.

    There...free financial advice for you morons. Gawd!

    They say instant approval, but that did not happen to me with a credit score over 800!
    They said I will receive the response on mail in two weeks and it has been over two weeks so far with no response!!!

    Does the PS3 work as a media extender? Divx/XviD...MP3, etc?
    how is it?
    I've been used to XBMC.. how will it compare?

    also, does the PS3 upscale regular DVDs? and would I need to buy anything additional with the PS3 to watch movies? will universal remote work with it?

    I know, lots of questions. I've been out of the console market for a long time.

    This deal works!!! I filled out the credit application online in late August when it was $150. I did not get an approval automatically. But I was approved a month later. I made it very clear to Sony/Chase that I do not want the credit card if it did not come with the $150 credit. In early Oct, I purchased the PS3 for $400+tax. I just checked my account and I just received the $150 credit. Unfortunately, the PS3 I received was DOA and I had to ship it back to Sony for repair.

    Didn't work for me. I got a message saying to wait 30 days for approval.


    It's been more than 30 days, and I haven't seen or heard anything. I wonder if it went through at all. I'm scared to look at my credit now.

    ps3 price is too high and this "deal" requires too much time and effort.

    No it doesn't.

    Chase reduced the credit limit on my other card equal to the amount I was approved for Sony's.

    It works depending on credit, if it works for you get it, if you don't get instant approval feel free to call them also they'll (if you ask) give you the credit information so you can get a free credit report. Also #25 those are not the only things that affect credit, and closed accounts can affect credit depending on the circumstances.

    buy ps3 80gb in australia and get LBP free with it, you have to buy from the store so I guess the net profit made off this deal is better

    Probably because you are a burp credit deadbeat like 62% of America.

    This is a decent deal if you are in the upper echelon of credit scores, like myself.
