On 11/24 at 8:00am through 11:59pm on 11/25, the 80GB PS3 ($499) will come with 10 FREE Blu-ray movies instantly. You choose any 10 BD titles under $30 within the store and they will override the prices to zero. For those stores that carry BD already, additional titles are being sent in for the sale. For those that do not have BD in their store (a small minority) product will be sent to each store specifically for this sale.

You still get your 5 FREE movies by mail.

Hmmm 15 free movies, that rocks.

only $500? wow!

$500 for a console that plays HD movies, plays PS3 games, surfs the internet, 80gb hard drive, etc. Doesn't seem that bad...

Of course, I'm not sucking Micro$oft's, or anyone's cock...so that might have a slight lean on my opinion on the matter.

Almost $400 in free movies.

So, $125 for a PS3 80 Gig, roughly.

As I said, for any non Toshiba fanbois, very good deal.

$500 for a console is a fucking scam no matter what it does.

Standard Xbox 360 with only a 20gb HDD - $300
HD-DVD addon (to play HD movies like the PS3 does out of the box) - $180
Xbox 360 120 gb HDD addon (to bring it past the 80gb PS3 model) - $199

Paying more for the same package while sucking down a hot steamy load of Micro$oft's cock - Priceless

I paid $45 for my 360 and $179 for the add on with 8 free movies.

No one gives a shit what YOU paid. We're talking about your typical consumer, which is this discussion's target.

Suck harder, I think Gates' testicles are almost empty.

So the typical consumer, looking for a high def disc player should pay $500 for one? That's fucking STUPID no matter how many "free" movies they give away.

I bought the 360 add on because I already had a 360 and wanted a cheap way to play HD movies. At the time, it was the cheapest way for me to get a high def player. The add on is no longer anywhere NEAR the best and cheapest way to get in to HD so why the fuck do people keep bringing it up?

The 360 is a better console for the money than the PS3.

A standalone HD-DVD player is a better value than the PS3.

Either way, if you buy the PS3, you are losing but it's two separate battles.

You forgot the built-in wireless adapter on the PS3-about 100 bucks for the 360 model

A 200 dollar stand alone HD DVD player is most definitely NOT a better buy than a PS3. The format war rages on, and the HD DVD player could be worthless. The PS3 will still be a valid good game player for years to come. That's not in question.

Your 360 deal isn't reproducable, so trying to put it as par is stupid. You want to play it that way, I got my PS3 for free, so guess it's a much better deal than your 360 eh, plus I didn't have to buy an addon shit HD player for 160 bucks, or wireless which is another 100 bucks, or your live membership for 100 bucks for the last two years. Hey, your freebee deal already sucks ass with those added charges, and isn't even what the average shmoe gets.

PS3 deal. Win.

Except lack of content.

Same goes for the 360.
Neither one is a great deal for the consumer at this point.

The $200 standalone is a far better deal if you don't give a flying fuck about the "console" aspect of the PS3 and are only interested in something to watch HD movies on. It's indisputable so why continue disputing it? $500>$200 which means $300 less in my pocket making it a far worse "deal". In fact, I could buy 2 HD-DVD players (one for the bedroom or maybe a gift for dear old mom), get 20 "free" movies and still have $100 left over to buy a Nintendo DS to play games on for the same price as your Piece o' Shit 3.

If I want a new DVD player I am not going to pay $500 fuckin dollars for one. Neither Blu-Ray or HD-DVD are worth a $500 disc player upgrade and if you paid anywhere near that much for them, you are a fool. $100 or $200 is an acceptable amount of money to pay for the benefits of either format unless you have more money than you know what to do with and most people do not.

I never said or even implied that my 360 deal was "par". I said the only reason I bought the HD-DVD add on was because I already owned a 360 that I paid next to nothing for and I wanted to get in to HD for the smallest investment. If you just want a HD-DVD player, DO NOT BUY THE 360 AND THE ADD ON. It's a waste of money if you are not interested in the console. If you already own the 360 and don't mind using it to watch movies, the add on is not a bad deal and I expect the price to drop below $100 soon making it a super cheap entry.

you're absolutely the worst advocate for these things toss

you're never interested in something, or like it until it's obsolete


the main idea of the 360 is to be a media hub, not just a console

ps3 has the same lofty goal, but is somewhat behind in the development cycle, but has the advantage of at least not nickel and diming you for all the features

i think it is really important to remember that if you don't buy a 360 that it is equivalent to sticking it to Bill Gates.... because he just went to #2 richest man on earth, so i am sure you not buying a 360 will SCREAM YOUR DISAPPROVAL directly in his ear and break his heart.

Yeah but Tossica has some leftover hatred for Sony from some Everquest memory gone bad kind of shit so hates everything to do with them. He was also seen protesting outside a Wal-Mart about 6-7 years ago driving a chevy nova over only the Sony brand WebTVs.

I heard he has a walkman mounted over his fireplace.

I have not seen any ads to verify if this sale is true. It seems too good to be true. Any word?

The deal is 5 free in store and 5 free by mail and it's on select titles.

/yawn

Tired from slobbing on Gates' cock all day?

The deal is linked on Wal Mart's site, Jennay. Check it out there.

Bullshit.

Here's the facts. A link to Wal mart and to the article I got this from

http://holiday.ri-walmart.com/?section=secret

http://www.dailytech.com/Report+WalMart ... le9707.htm

Wal-Mart's Saturday "Secret Sale" to Feature 80GB PS3 with 15 Free Movies

Wal-Mart customers who purchase an 80GB PS3 will instantly receive 10 free Blu-ray movies.

Customers will also receive five additional titles via mail-in rebate from Sony.

Clicky for even more proof. Now fuck off out of my thread, you fanbois, especially since you are too much of a wuss to apologize for being wrong!

My bad.

Good luck finding one.

Hmmmm should I risk camping out at Walmart for 6 hrs to do this?? Is it even worth it? What in the world would I do with 80 gb? I don't even know for a fact if the Walmart near me has any 80gb in stock! I'd be fucking pissed if I camped out there in the cold all night just to find out they sold out yesterday. Decisions...

Nah, just check availability and see if they have one today. Some will, some won't.

It's a very good deal, but not a deal worth camping.

Plus, I bet we'll see a lot of PS3 deals this Christmas as Sony tries to catch up to the Wii which is in short supply. If you miss this one, expect a few more in December.

hehe you're not a fanboi?

Why do you care if people buy a shit console with no good games?
