IRetrouk5297d ago

theEnemy5298d ago

Cheap 2.5" HD Enclosure - $10

For $13.27 more you get a 120GB External HD.

But hey, some people doesn't the hassle. ;)

If you swap the Slim with the Uncharted bundle you get Uncharted and Pain which are $40 more.

IdleLeeSiuLung5297d ago

I see no reason to get the 250GB bundle when you can just upgrade to a 320GB for $60, if you do it yourself. Then you are left with a 120GB for any (backup?) purposes. Why bother with the 250GB bundle?

In fact as someone above pointed out, the Uncharted bundle with the sexier phat design cost the same as the slim and comes with the game. Now that is a great deal!!!

xoxideu5297d ago

terrible value is when you have to buy all the absurdly overpriced proprietary accessories for the other console, just to match what the ps3 offers

thats the real tragedy..

Sitdown5297d ago (Edited 5297d ago )

the real tragedy is you feeling compelled to bring "the other console" into this thread.

Jsynn75297d ago

I don't see why people just go for a 500GB HDD. It's cheap on newegg.com. I got one for my PS3 60Gb model. Now I have a BC PS3 with a ridiculous amount of space. That's a good investment.

gaffyh5297d ago

$350 is a decent price imo, yeah you could get a cheaper HDD and swap it out, but the price isn't as over inflated as you'd expect.

El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron - Coming Back for a New Generation

Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.

jznrpg5h ago

Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.

darthv725h ago

Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.

Fallout 3's Reveal Led To Death Threats And Bethesda's First Security Guard

The artist behind Fallout 4’s Deathclaw reveals just how bad things got back when Bethesda took over the series

anast7h ago

People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,

But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.

LucasRuinedChildhood6h ago

As much as Bethesda deserve criticism, that's not really relevant to the reveal of Fallout 3 in 2007.

VenomUK4h ago

The default angle Kotaku always go for is to highlight the worst in gaming.

I would’ve focused on the creative.

gold_drake2h ago

there is no "but". the hell lol
you dont send death threats, period.
