Hey guys,

A Target near me has the 160 GB slim on clearance for $174.98 and I'm wondering if that's a good deal or if I should wait for a sale on one of the other bundles. I'd only use it for exclusives like Uncharted, Infamous, MLB The Show, Last of Us, etc. would love to hear some CAG feedback!!!
 
I have a 120GB with about 8 digital games and about and about 6-8 games data installed from physical discs. Still about 60GB free so 160GB should be plenty enough space. That's a really good price for a PS3.
 
I have a 120 and I can only put like 3 full digital downloads on the HDD at once, so keep that in mind. (Right now it is TLoU, FFXIV Beta, and T&E. Also have 3 small digital titles.)
 
Unfortunately, Target sold it an hour before I got there. So now it's back to the hunt. Might preorder the GTA V bundle since I plan to get the game at release...

Patience will pay off for a PS3 bundle as the PS4 release approaches. I doubt there will be many supply issues for current gen hardware when GTA 5 drops.

As for hard drive size, 160gb should be the minimum and you can easily upgrade it. If you have any plans to get a Playstation Plus subscription in the future, I recommend at least 320gb, bigger if you can afford it.

Buy the cheapest system possible. Worry about HDD space only if your interested in digital titles. Then if so, it is still cheaper to just hunt for a 2.5" HDD.

Ideally, I'll snag a bundle for $200. The Uncharted 3 bundle would be the dream one since I'll get the game anyway and 250 GB is more than enough space, but I certainly would have a hard time saying no to another bundle for under $200.

GTA 5 comes out in mid-September, right? Labor Day sales might be a good time to strike a deal.
