GAMERS / MOVIE AFFICIANADOS: Please note $100 Price Break on Playstation 3 Game System which brings the price down to $499.99 // Remember that you can get 5 free Blu-Ray DVDs with purchase of any Blu-Ray Player / Game system by going here: http://www.bluraysavings.com/

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

it really is this way that the Internet learned of the Xbox/PS2 price drops of last generation, if you were there to witness it (it was an Xbox featured in a leaked Wal-Mart flyer for 199$)... people say that the poster of this news is extremely reliable, so it seems absolutely genuine

Yeah, $500 for a console is still an exorbitant amount of money even with a bunch of shitty Bleu-Rei movies as a bonus.

with the addition of the 3 year warranty for the 360 and this, I MIGHT GET ME A 360 AND PS3 THIS WEEK

$500 is tempting bu bu bu $400 is what I'm still waiting for

Buy the PS3, get the 5 free blu-rays, return them to the store for $130, now you have a $370 PSTriple.

And no movies or games to play on it. Great!

Who the hell who truly cares about games WON'T get a PS3 in time for Hot Shots Golf 5?

Mondain's post would've been more reasonable if it was about Metal Gear Solid 4.

Last I checked there was something called the PlayStation Network with free games and demos on it...

I wish I had waited until now to buy a PS3. It wasn't worth it to pay $100 more and have no free BD movies for a few extra months of playing an average FPS and VF5. There wasn't even anything on the PS3 to show off to friends since the 360 had a game that was far more impressive than anything on the PS3.

It was almost as bad a decision as buying the WII at launch. The only good thing about the WII is that it got many non-gaming friends to play videogames for the first time.

500 bux would rock if there were games lol

Himu · « **Reply #16 on:** July 05, 2007, 11:07:35 PM »

But that's just for Circuit City. People keep acting like ps3 will get a complete price drop when it's obviously just Circuit City saying,"Hey guys, this console isn't selling worth shit and we want to rid of them. Take em."

Mondain · « **Reply #17 on:** July 06, 2007, 04:41:12 AM »

eh, these price drops are as real as the Whip Whip... behold this photograph taken from some canadian Best Buy flyer!

trippingmartian · « **Reply #18 on:** July 06, 2007, 04:44:15 AM »

I think that's from the London, Ontario store opening this week. They're going to have all the systems marked down at the new Best Buy store that day.

Mondain · « **Reply #19 on:** July 06, 2007, 04:57:59 AM »

damn, it'd be a shame if that's so

but then again, why would it be written "new low price" on the ad if it's just some store opening special lasting no longer than a day? sounds more like a general price drop than anything else

trippingmartian · « **Reply #20 on:** July 06, 2007, 05:11:03 AM »

Nice catch. You're probably right.

Mondain · « **Reply #21 on:** July 06, 2007, 05:15:54 AM »

that means that people have to buy Hot Shots Golf 5 blindly too...

IT BETTER BE 399 BY THE TIME MGS4 COMES OUT

Why do you keep thinking HSG5 will sell well in USA?

It's PS3, it will barely register in the top 20 software the month it is out if it even does that.

Your idea a simple golf sequel will become a huge system seller is hilarious.

your desire to see the definitive next-gen system fail is pathetic.

you don`t even own a ps3 - you are such a fake fan it hurts.

Why is PS3 the definitive next-gen system? Is it because the awesome powers of the Cell and Blu-ray ensure that all the definitive versions of games are on the PS3? Like VF5?

Regardless of what my "desire" is HGS5 is not a system seller by any means.

sucks they got rid of the awesome 20gb version -- could've been $399

Mondain · « **Reply #29 on:** July 06, 2007, 03:18:10 PM »

uh, where the hell did I claim that HSG5 would be a system seller? past games of the franchise only had mild successes here, nothing to the level of popularity that this franchise enjoys in Japan, this will have a very small commercial appeal, there's no denying that

why is it that fanboys like you turn everything into a sales argument? all that this post meant is that Hot Shots Golf is extremely FUN to play and criminally underrated, and this new iteration looks absolutely amazing, and it will include online play on top of that

so if you're a GAMER instead of an armchair analyst, you MUST get a PS3 and this one game

all gamer's think a 5th hot shots golf is worth 650?

Mondain · « **Reply #31 on:** July 06, 2007, 04:15:06 PM »

because of the replay value that it offers and the great local multiplayer matches that are possible with it, yes, it's certainly worth a few hundred dollars... not to mention all the other bonuses that owning a PS3 offers

the best Hot Shots Golf game deserve a spot in the top 25 games of all time list
