Cantilever Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 OK after everyone telling me if I want to get a blu-ray player, I might as well buy the PS3. Even though I already have other gaming systems, looking at the prices and capabilities, it really does make sense just to buy the PS3. $400 though is still alot of money. Ive heard of the microsoft cashback thing, but havent used it much. The best I saw was 7% off the $400. Basically I was hoping for some ideas to get a PS3 for a cheaper price. Id be willing to do some extra leg work to save some money. I may also go to the local video game store and try selling my PS2 and all my games to knock the price down. Do any of you guys have a PS3? If so where and how much did you pay? Got any ideas on how to get a cheaper one? I also wouldnt mind some reviews from you guys about the product, and its quality. Thanks in advance..

Ravioli Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 What about costco? Hello Japan? Connect me to Godzilla please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cantilever Posted November 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 What about costco? Generally they are a good deal. However on products like gaming systems, the MSRP is usually strictly enforced in any store you walk into, even over the internet. I looked on Ebay too, some so so deals, but I have never bought anything on Ebay so I probably wont try that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like extra controllers and games. Hello Japan? Connect me to Godzilla please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishinambition Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 Costco bundles are almost always worth it, epecially the first runs. And Sony's online gaming is free, which is huge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gmofftarki Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 And Sony's online gaming is free, which is huge. And it comes with a free wireless adapter, rather than dropping $100 bucks on Microsoft's add-on one, which is also huge. I strongly recommend picking up COD4, Grand Theft Auto IV, and a "music" game (rock band, guitar hero, whatever) for your PS3 when you get it.
