Where'd you hear about it? How many gigs? I'd rather have that bundle than one with games I already owned and played over a year ago.

Theres 2 diff holiday bundles:

I hope other retailers have the bundle with other games so I can grab those, because I love the Uncharted and Infamous series, but there's no reason for me to own the bundled collections xD

I do expect to see similar deals from other retailers...

Nice prices. I am by no means a PS3 fan. But $200 for blu ray player, streaming media, streaming music, and a decent game library is great deal. If gaming is not your priority this system will make people quite happy.

Does anyone know if GameStop will be selling these as sealed? Or will they be "opened sold as new?"

I'm not trying to fan the GameStop hate, I just don't buy there if I can help it as I prefer new over used, and ebay is my used game source, not Gamestop.

I was not aware that Gamestop was opening systems before selling them.

Maybe in the hood they open them and place security tags in them? Not sure...

I would think they most people would be getting sealed systems.

I don't know what you are talking about. I have never heard of Gamestop opening up new systems, there is no need to do this. In most instances they would be inclined to sell used systems, since they make more money that way...

If you look at the unboxing PS3 videos you'll see the system comes in 2 boxes (the bundle info on the thin outer box and base PS3 info on the inner box)

What Sony does is that they make regular base PS3's and boxes -- when they have a bundle, they slip in extra bundle items into the base box and put a 2nd thin box over it from factory. Sony sometimes sends bundle items + thin outer boxes to some retailers so they can make their own bundles from base PS3 systems that they have in stock

Good thing about the super slim PS3 is that there are currently no base systems for sale -- they're all selling bundles so all retailers will get bundles directly from Sony

Wow! Seems like a very good deal. Sad that i'll have to miss out on it. I can't afford anything this month.

Does anyone know if it's likely that this PS3 bundle or similar ones like it will be sold for this price through December?.... or is November pretty much it? Would really like to know.

it says 250gb version, with 2 games? for $200? holy crap

If it was like last year, the $200 deal is for Black Friday only, or when these particular bundles sell out (which will be fairly quick). After that you may see some sales on PS3 hardware, but it probably won't be as good as Black Friday...

You'll probably see them on and off for $200-$230 until Xmas or maybe buy a PS3 and get a $xx gift card type of offers

i hope the HDPVR 2 is on sale. then that with a ps3 on sale will be epic.

Anyone know if last years ps3 bundle sold out fast at GameStop? I'm planning on going to microcenter first to pick up a cheap processor and en maybe go to GameStop to pick up this bundle.

From what I saw (in previous years), store specific bundles placed whatever exclusive game inside the box and simply put a sticker on the box that an extra game was included...

I don't think I have seen consoles sell for more than $20 off after Black Friday, but there will probably be discounts, just not as good as Black Friday...

I know the GS my buddy manages only got 6 of the bundles last year and 50 people showed up at least for opening to try and get one.
