Thanks. I just may.

This is one of the more absurd things amazon has done. Does EVERYONE there work in india, and not just CS?

Edit: I just emailed them. I don't it will do any good, but there's always a chance, right?

best buy is the same right now. Best Buy Canada has it listed even, but there is no record of it on BB.com and their 800 call center had no idea what I was talking about. had to walk him through finding it at other retailers sites.
Lame

It's starting to look like this really is sony's fault. Again. A sony release being a cluster****? Yeah, THAT never happens...

I recently bought my PS3 and a copy of Demon`s souls, but I have a question at the start of the game my PS3 starts making weird sounds but is only there, while playing the game my PS3 is silent, is this normal?

Can you put this game in the hardrive, to avoid loading time?

It depends on what the sound is. If it just sounds like a disc drive moving around, or like a computer normally would then that is fine. I've never noticed any odd sounds with mine though. Also, I don't think you can put Demon Souls on the HD. Not many PS3 games have that option, or need it since everything fits on one Blu-Ray. If you can ever put a game on the HD, it will be when you first play the game automatically or through the games menu.

It does sound like stock for this is either selling out too fast or not at all the retailers yet. I don't know, or like another poster said, Amazon is simply waiting to ship for some reason. What other Sony releases have been cluster****? I've never had a problem getting anything on or near release

When i had a slim the only strange sounds i heard were like clicking (knocking) sounds, but i read that its the PS3 casing that expands when it gets hot? So it would click after a while when i turn it on, and again when i turned it off.

The funny thing about this price drop to me is that I got my PS3 Slim from Dell for $255 with free shipping when they were first released two years ago.

PS3 320GB inFamous 2 bundle

WTF Amazon? 8-9 days ? Really ?

Gonna go get my 160GB PS3 within the next couple of days, are the CECH 3000's in the wild yet? I wanna make sure I get a 2500A.

It already out on amazon but I don't know about other retail stores.

May I ask why? I picked up a CECH3001A and it seems fine, but I am a total newb in this aspect. Is the 2500A better?

Originally Posted by Reck_Havoc May I ask why? I picked up a CECH3001A and it seems fine, but I am a total newb in this aspect. Is the 2500A better?

Personal preference mainly. The 3000 has an 80mm cooling fan instead of the 120mm one found in previous slims. At idle and low loads the noise levels will be the same, but when the system is being stressed the 80mm fan will be noticeably louder. That's the main reason I want a 2500A.

But the 3000 weighs about .88 pounds less, and has 1-3 watts lower power consumption, mainly due to the removal of all the LED's. Slight appearance changes, and I'm not positive but I believe the 3000 will only allow Blu Ray playback over HDMI while the older systems can still use component. That's not an issue for most people, but it's one of the bigger changes I think.

I got tired of waiting for Amazon so I cancelled my order and picked one up from Gamestop. I had already done 2 live chats and sent them an email, and all they could do is "forward my feedback to the appropriate department."

I hate having to do business with Gamestop, but in this case paying 20 bucks in taxes was worth not having to wait on Amazon for some unknown amount of time.

Should have ordered from newegg.com. I hate paying 8% tax on items that cost several hundred dollars, so it's nice to keep my money in my pocket.

And this is why I like buying systems with credits from GS. Tax free!

What?How is it tax free?Where do you live?Are games tax free too?

Say you want to buy a game for 10 dollars and trade in a game valued at 10 credit, it's a wash. Technically, you've traded for equal value, so no tax is charged. If you can catch a good trade-in promotion, Gamestop isn't too bad...but otherwise they suck.
