[quote name='Kurai_Seraphim']The 160 GB bundle comes with a second controller? I'd not heard that.
I'm currently looking into PS3s myself and if the bundle does have another controller, then it might tip the scale. I was just going to get the 80 GB and swap out the hard drive for a 320 if it seemed like I was going to run out.[/QUOTE]
I've seen it on Amazon a few times, but they do have it on
www.sonystyle.com where I bought it. The trade off is that I had to pay sales tax on sonystyle. And now you can get a second free controller with either system (80GB or the 160GB).

If you're going to buy a second controller and Uncharted anyway (which you should buy Uncharted--I loved it and I didn't think I would like it at all), the extra $100 you pay for the 160 GB pays for itself. If you're able to do the credit card deal, you save even more (minimum $100, max $300). I got the first $100 back, and I'm almost up to the second $100 off (dog had to go to the vet $250, car needed maintenance $400, bills, etc. almost up to $1500 for the second credit). Wife will charge her $400/month tuition on the card and I should be able to get the full $300 back on the card and thus will have paid $199 for my PS3.
If you have enough money for the PS3 right now, and your bills are NOT greater than 500 a month, normally, go for this deal ($150 credit back):

If you do have a car, insurance, a pet, a family, a house, etc., and spend 1500 easily within 3 months, then go for this deal and go for the $300 back:

Just remember to pay off the initial charge for the PS3 before you start making charges--they apply your payments to the 0% interest 1st--so if you do not pay it off and put more on the card, you risk paying finance charges and fees (and your $100 credits just disappear before your eyes).
Another cool thing is that you also get 5 points for each $1 you spend on the PS3. So, if you buy the $500 one, you get 2500 points.
I've been downloading tons of crap off of the PSN store (demos, trailers, themes) and I'm down to 117 GB out of the 140 GB of free space you have out of the total 160 GB (probably lose some from the formatting just like any other hard drive).
Now, keep in mind that lots of games aren't even 2 player games anyway, so I don't know if it's worth it to buy a second controller or not. But it's nice to have another controller if you need one.
Anyway, don't rush into buying one--make a spreadsheet and figure out which is the best deal overall.
