Why would annyone accept the free game?


By returning a recent bought Fat PS3 they not only get a 50% larger hardrive but it is smaller, uses less energy and will save them $100.


Those games are what? $60 at most? Still $40 out of pocket if you ignore all the slim benefits.

 

 

Ummmm no. You didnt' read the article

 

FROM the article

"Best Buy is offering people who come into the store to exchange recently purchased Playstation 3's for the newly released PS3 Slim a choice of a free Playstation 3 title and price match in lieu of the new slimmer, larger-hard-drive sporting console."

 

A free title AND a price match. So you save the 100$ AND get a 60$ discount via the title.

 

So now the question is, is 60$ game worth the bigger hard drive and better energy
