Ah Fathers Day would make sense of the sale too...Kind of came out of nowhere, but now makes more sense
I also started thinking maybe they are trying to get rid of the older model PS3 40GB, since the new ones come out June 12th (Only difference I believe is new ones come with DualShock)...
But ya Fathers Day makes more sense :D
@dtewi I think your just completly exagerating your analogy here... When your adding a measily $100 that will most likely get used instantly.
Example: Someone isn't just going to buy a PS3 and leave it at their house for a few years. There will most likely be 'startup' costs like purchasing Games/Movies/Controllers/Cables/etc. Just like you would with practically anything. Cereal? You might need milk. New Car? You might need gas. Computer? You might need a game/keyboard/extra hdd. Laptop? You might need a case. TV? You might need a DVD Player. DVD Player? You might need a movie. PS3? You might want something to play or watch.
