I just checked and the 40 GB is $399 and the 80 GB is $599. That's better compared to what it used to be.

Part of it is my bias for Sony but IMO, the PS3 is better when it comes to the Playstation Network and Store, their consoles meet my demands. I don't every remember hearing much about malfunctions for the PS3. The PS3 in my eyes ia a more "real" nex-gen console if you will.
well when i saw the price i said it better not have malfunctions, cause i had so many problems with both versions with the playstation 1 and then the playstation 2 (controllers breaking, games freezing, games scratching, ect), then i never had any of those problems with my xbox, and i did get the ring of death on my 360 and was ready to take an ax to it, but they replaced it for free and gave me 1000 MS points and i haven't had 1 problem with it since it got returned
Yeah, I haven't had the Red Ring of Death either as my 360 wasn't bought around that time but I never really had a problem with my PS2. If anything, I caused the problems, I broke my controllers, I'm sort of the reason why my PS2 sometimes doesn't play games because I kept it on too much but I've learned from my mistakes. The PS3 doesn't really have malfunctions as I've heard. Just don't abuse it.
yeah half the time thats the same for me cause i deff need anger management and i used to smash the controllers off the walls or windows, and I treat my 360 the same way and haven't had any of those problems and the only thing i'll have to fix is the wall or window lolYeah, I haven't had the Red Ring of Death either as my 360 wasn't bought around that time but I never really had a problem with my PS2.

lol, I don't do that as often but I remember one time I was playing Madden 2006 and I threw 6 intercerptions...all in the same quarter. Boy was I not please, I threw my controller on the ground, picked it back up and hiked the ball after I picked a play, I was then sacked because one of the buttons didn't work. THat made me even more angry:lol:
I haven't done that in a while though I am very competitive. Last thing I broke was my second controller and that was last year, it broke by itself but it was a cheap one since I didn't feel like getting two good controllers.
[QUOTE="android1000"]SS, how many GB's is you PS3?ShowStopper102
:lol: 40.
:? What's so funny?
Oh, OK, I want the 80 but it seems a little too much on the expensive side so I might as well get the 40 GB one. So, is it pretty roomy, don't find yourself scrammbling to make sure there is space?
If you wait long enough, you can find deal where if you purchase a PS3, you will receive $100 gift card.

Where is that?
But we don't wait anymore. I can now recall that I had 5 RRoD.FullMetalWWant
:shock: Wow, that sucks. Do you play your 360 a little too much? I barely play mine. What did they do, give you a new one over and over?
why do you think ps3 is better?

blu-ray, free online, almost the same games as on the X360
[QUOTE="Link256"]If you wait long enough, you can find deal where if you purchase a PS3, you will receive $100 gift card.android1000Where is that?For example, Walmart had the deal last weekend.
Also, one of the in-store or online stores are bound to have the deal on Black Friday and/or Cyber Monday. I do not know this for sure, however, I would say it would be a good guess.
Otherwise, I would suggest to keep eye on the following, if you are looking for a good deal:

Here's a good thing:
Best Buy
When you work for these guys, they know they need back up 360's. I do play too much on the weekends. It just can't handle my greatness.

I think I was playing as either Tom Brady or Peyton Manning, I always play as those two so it was one of them. Yeah, I remember that cheap one I bought, the analog stick became lose as well and for some weird reason the x button was being pressed even though it was being pushed or held down.

If you're anything like me, 40 Gigs is far more than enough.
Well, yeah, SS, I think it will be enough for me too but I like to have alot of room left just incase. We'll see though, I'm satisfied with either one.(40 GB or 80 GB)
As for NTG, yeah, they don't see those anymore. What sucks though is those were the ones that could play PS2 games, the ones on the market at the moment can't do that.
I'm not sure about you, but definatley for me, I have enough room left over. What do you plan to put on it?
A bunch of music, definately! I may also put pictures on it and vids, maybe. More than what I said though as i must have the PS3 first to know what I'll definately put on it, for sure.
What do you put on yours?
- Videos
- Music
- Photos
- Themes
You can also import CDs, watch DVDs, and Blu-Ray (not sure about importing on that one) and go on the internet.

ShowStopper102
Themes? Like for the background?
I'm definately going on the internet when it comes to the PS3, have you?
Alright, thanks, now I have an idea of what I might put on the PS3.
We are running low on PS3 lately. I remember looking for one at work and my manager said they were sold out.FullMetalWWant
Really now, where do you work?
Themes are more than just backgrounds. They change the icons and everything. It's pertty neat and you can download them off of the Store.
I have gone on the internet, but honestly, I'm not too crazy about it. I went onto YouTube and watched a video, lol.
IMO, it's hard to navigate on there.
Oh, is it a very wide variety?
Yeah, I'd think the same thing as I went online on the Wii one time and it was a chore to navigate while on the internet.
No, not really, lol. They have themes based on games, and few miscellaneous ones.
:lol: Yeah. So, I just don't go on the internet.
Oh, in that case, I won't really use them. I'll customize myself.
Exactly, I'm good the regular way, a computer.
Yeah, I don't really see the point for myself to go on the internet on my PS3 when my computer is two steps away from it.ShowStopper102
lol, exactly.
I work in Best Buy near all the video games and movies. We just can never get enough PS3's around here anymore.FullMetalWWant
I don't think I will buy it at Best buy but the Best Buy like two miles from my house always has PS3s to my knowledge.
