They should also bundle MGS4 and LBP. That way, you get a movie and a game as well!

Good one. Even though I'm an MGS fan. I'm suprised you haven't been down voted though.

He wasn't downvoted, because it's true. MGS4 was one of the best games I ever watched.

Thats a fantastic deal. I honestly think by Christmas there will be an 80GB PS3 deal bundled with Uncharted 2 for $349.99 though.

I just want Sony to release details on the new Slim model so I know it's capabilities. If it has the same stuff as the original PS3 then I might buy it but if it has less somehow, then I'll buy a bundle right now.

Decent bundle..... but not the best. I have seen many better ones recently. I would prefer, for example, this bundle with mgs4 and resistance

dammit dammit dammit. just bought wall e on blu ray. wtf am i going to do with a 2nd copy of wall e? had this come out a few weeks ago i wouldve been all over it. gah, i know i could sell a copy, but it wouldnt be at full price.. shit. decisions decisions. though it would be nice to have a slimmer ps3, guess we'll wait and see what price it drops as.

Unless you can't wait, it's silly not to wait until September. That's historically when manufacturers start cutting prices for the holiday season. Presumably, we could also see a new PS3 announced then. (at the very least those 45nm chips will show up).

I've been building SonyRewards point for just that occasion.

the thing is that's the problem sony is running into with these price drop rumors. Every time it pops up again people hold off making a purchase that they might have normally just gone ahead with. Int he enf even if the Slim released in september, who's to say it would even be lower in price!? It could stay the same price while the 80gb dissapears and leaves the 120gb in it's place as the lower price model. So what's the point of waiting, all you miss out on is a few more GBs in your harddrive or a flatter system which is hardly a deal breaker for most people.

If people are like me and own a 360, they're just looking for exclusives. 400 is a high price of entry to play a handful of games they couldn't before. That's why I'm content with waiting. I still have 360 games to play and the PS3 games I want are only getting cheaper.

It's a good bundle. It's a good movie that costs between 25 and 30 bucks with a game that great for all ages and offers almost unlimited replayability for 50 or more depending on where you buy it. that's almost 80 bucks off a PS3 for people demanding a price cut and you instantly get a game and bluray movie that should be in ANYONE's collection as must haves.

If you have the movie or the game already what the hell do you even care? you either have a DVD of it and arnt ready to move to bluray or you have the game and/or movie already and it's pointless for you to even worry about this. The point here is that there are still people out there who havent tried either the movie or the game and would love to have these games and those are the people who should be interested in buying it.

Best bundle ever?

Best bundle... so far.

I'm torn on this one. I want a PS3 and I'm starting to get tired of waiting for the rumoured price cut. But I know as soon as I buy one, THEN the price will go down.
The movie is better than the game. If the game was Infamous I would probably purchase this. I'll probably end up waiting though....

My 360 was $300 with two kids games (Kung Fu Panda and Lego Indy,) No Bluray, no wireless, and I had to get a gold subscription for the main reason I bought it, for Netflix. I got the MotorStorm bundle, with BC, and I'd much rather have this bundle, if it had BC, than any of the other bundles for any system. And I own LBP and WALL-E on Bluray, they'd be pretty attractive incentives for me.

As much as I love antagonizing the Sony Ponies, I would pick the sucker up for $299 with LBP and something else like R2 or K2. Hopefully by the Holidays those corporate jerks will get a grip.

All set with the Blue Ray. love saving space with the digital downloads through DirectTv.

Finally, someone who sees you have to get a job instead of whine about the price!
LBP is worth it. Imagine if they had this deal for ALL PS3's. 160GB PS3, Uncharted, LBP, Pain, Wall-E for 499? Yeah!

The bundle is probably only for just this week.

However, if you really want to take advantage of it, you could get a Best Buy Credit Card (get the one that's for Best Buy products, not the one that's a general credit card). They should defer finance charges for like, 6 months giving you all that time to pay it off.

I highly recommend taking advantage of this bundle. The movie was one of the best movies I've seen in a long time, and the game is a fantastic game too.
That said though, Neo, take my advice about the card with a grain of salt. It is an option, but if you think it might be living outside your means, obviously then be smart about your money.

Really? This appears to be better than a Kung Fu Panda/Lego Indiana Jones bundle!
I'd rank it right behind the MGS4 bundle and slightly ahead of the Uncharted bundle.
Bundles. In the good old days every system had a pack-in and two controllers!
Anyway, is this troll ever going to get banned? I think he takes a laptop in the crapper, constantly pressing F5 waiting for Sony stories.

Take some advice. Buy both systems. It's really for the best.

I suppose it's the best bundle ever if you really enjoyed both LBP and Wall-E. I liked Wall-E, but LBP (IMO) is total dreck. I understand why people like it (LBP), but I don't.

Although, since the PS3 that's included in the bundle is of considerable lesser quality (no BC) compared to previous bundles... I wouldn't say that this deal is what will get those that aren't in any hurry to snap up a PS3 to bite.

Like others, I'd much rather see a price cut and then be allowed to spend my money on games/movies of my choosing.

Really? Wall-E? Is it not selling is that why they are bundling it with it. Also I'll be honest I dont like LBP, its a nice game an all but its way to cute for me I rather play something more to my age level like MGS, Resistance FoM, Fallout 3 heck even Assassins Creed.

The amount of movie someone would drop for the unit and they going to let there kid watch Wall-E on it? No way last thing I want is any kids touching my PS3.

I have no interest in either Little Big Planet or Wall-e. If you're planning on buying them both anyways, woopee, great bundle. I'd much rather buy a Ps3 for $300 and buy games and movies that are worth my money.

MGS4 and Evil Dead 2 bundle? I'd buy that without hesitation. But $400 is too much. The Ps3 is an amazing piece of machinery, but that much money for a console with few AAA titles is out of the question. When the Ps3 is priced competitively, I'll get one, or maybe if they just make a game for it I can't pass by, but right now I'm just waiting.

Hm... Me likely. Eh-- Print it, package it, sell it. Europe seems to appreciate the PlayStation 3 for what its worth and outselling the PS3 last I heard are they getting this? American's are behind the times (yes I live in the states and own a Xbox 360 and a Grand Am, but also own a PlayStation 3, Yamaha VStar and would gladly trade in my Grand Am for a 2007 Toyota Camry SE. I'm American true, but a 360 can't stand up to a PS3, a Harley-Davidson can't hold its own to a Yamaha Raider S, and a Ford Fusion nor a Chevy Impalla can't compete with a Camry or Accord. The Dodge Charger comes close. American stuff just breaks. Americans are the great innovators, but the Japanese are the superior perfectionists. "The real artist doesn't create, they steel." - Bill Gates Microsoft President Co-Founder and CEO though he was refering to Microsoft in this quote, I'll use it against him this time. Everything else about America's great... Except our economic downfall. Romney could have saved us. McCain and Obama should crawl into a hole.) American's just don't get it (referring to gamers).

Some of us do, others of us are happy investing in something the breaks and crashes on us and invest even more in it to get it fixed on a daily basis. When ya build it right the first time, it doesn't matter, because ya don't have to worry about it and it'll last you a lifetime. (Compliments on VW as well. German's can make a car. Itallians and Brits are amazing! Love the Rolls and the Lambergini's.)
