Now I don't usually do this whole "advertise a console" fanboyism, but this is just too good a deal to ignore. Bestbuy is gonna sell PS3s for retail price ($399) bundled with two games. "oh boy, two games" you say, knowing full well that bundles almost always have crap in them or something. Well, this is an exception. This bundle will be bundling Metal Gear Solid 4 and Killzone 2 , two of the best games (by sales and ratings, that is) for PS3. here's a picture. 80gb. Just a heads up. This'll be in best buy. It's pretty much like saving 80 bucks on one. Anyways... yes that's it. I hope this doesn't get closed for advertising, far from it. It's just to let people who wanted to get one to get one. Also, the reason they're selling this is because a PS3 slim will be coming out soon, probably august or so. So this would be a good time to get a fat one, considering the slim will probably be the 399 price tag without the extra games. PS: I don't care if you like the 360. I own one too, big deal, that has nothing to do with this thread.

Meh I can't say anything against this, it's a pretty good deal. But the Xbox is still the superior console.

the 360 elite bundle a few months ago that came with halo 3 and fable 2 is still better than this.

Heads up though, it might not be a good version of the console. When the 360 had a deal like that (with halo 3 & fable 2), it turns out that the elite had the old chip(which didn't fix the RRoD). But still, go ps3!

The 360 elite bundle is cheap because the xbox you're getting does not fix the RRoD . The ps3 on the other hand, doesn't have massive hardware problems
