Forums - Sony - New PS3 bundle coming to stores now, may be $199 on Black Friday

yeah boo Sony for giving us a cheap PS3 and FREE games!! who do they think they are!?



Around the Network

Only time will tell if it moves enough consoles to compete with the 360/Halo combo and the new WiiU. It wouldn't hurt sales at all, great bundle other than the new super slim design looking kind of outdated with those lines on it, reminds me of the Atari 2600 design.



Good bundle. Newcomers will find plenty of fun playing these games. I would add 1 month PS+ with it to add to the instant gaming collection and lure more people to the service. :)



Great bundle. And in the end this will boost Uncharted 3 sales too. People who like Uncharted 1+2 will also buy Uncharted 3 this holiday or maybe will buy a vita for Golden Abyss.



Oh and between i see nothing wrong if sony bundle there own games. More profit for themselfs. Other console manufacturers did that too. Its not that Sony must convinced 3rd party for the pS3 anymore.

sony should have put uncharted on that cover, it's much more marketable then infamous

Don't see how anything has much of a chance against a 360 plus halo and/or COD in the states this holiday tbh.

 

edit. Apparently Leo thinks this is off topic. It's about as on topic as you can be. It's a discussion about how a bundle can perform on Black Friday.  The opposition needs to be considered.


Why does the first answer to a new (and good) PS3 bundle must be like this?

This doesn't contribute to the discussion. It doesn't discuss the bundle, the games or the price.

It just says: Tiz zukz, Xbox gonna sell Better!!!11!

And you say it's about as on topic as it can be... Come on!!!! You know better than that


If you stick around these forums long enough you will realise that kowenicki doesn't miss a chance to throw in a stealth troll comment when it comes to Sony. As soon as he is called out on it he gets defensive and claims he is unfairly being targeted. Unfortunately he is a pro at what he does and continues to get away with it. Better to just ignore his comments when he posts in Sony threads.

 

@op

 

This is a great bundle and will sell well while providing great value to the consumer.

It's entertaining to hear someone else actually call him out for this, given his transparent nature. I don't know why he even bothers posting in Sony related topics other than to try to gain some negative attention from Sony fans.



If true, this deal is inanely good.

I suspect that the deal a permanent price meant to offset the WiiU.

Wow, if true this bundle is insane. Uncharted 2 and inFAMOUS 1 are two of my top 3 favorite games.

Really wish Sony would bring the 12gb ps3 to the US and have a temporary price drop to $199 (for the console alone) for Christmas. I've heard video game sites predict this would happen, but I think it may be too late at this point for an announcement like that.

No point if this 250GB bundle will be available for $199.

I bought every one of those games on release day in their time, and I'm still considering picking up this bundle.

I had originally planned on buying the 12GB PS3 when it was announced, figuring it would be $199 and was a bit disappointed it was withheld from NA markets. This bundle is obviously a better buy.



@greenmedic
But the problem is this is rumored to be the BF bundle, I.e. a bundle that lasts for a single day, correct?

My point was to have ps3 at the $199 price point all through Christmas.
