The PS3 Doesn't Need a Price Drop after This Incredible $60 Deal

That's an incredible deal. Especially after all the exclusives were announced.

[morganfell]

That is a good deal. I own 3 PS3s already but shop a great deal on Amazon so I am thinking on picking it up as a gift.

[keith-ps3]

y u have 3

[Biggest]

Most homes have more than one room and TV. I have three as well. One for me, my son, and one for the wife (NetFlix/BluRay).

Not too long ago, there was a deal for a PS3 through amazon (I believe) with a $100 GC. That was an unbelievable deal.

The PS3 has lately had a $50 GC on a regular basis....

[the_best_player]

I own a PS3, my brother and my dad :D

[tubers]

compulsive buying? Meh.. Who cares.. it's your money :)

[Aarix]

okay, enough Edgar allen Poe references.

[Ja555on]

who made an Edgar allen Poe reference?

[ATiElite]

I say drop the price!

walking into a store and seeing the PS3 for $249 is better than dealing with Rebates or credits.

Still a good deal though.

[blumatt]

I think Sony will wait until they can drop it to $200. I don't think they'll just go down by $50. That wouldn't be as big a deal as a $100 drop. Either way, though, now's a good time to buy a PS3 with all the great exclusives and third party exclusive content (Battlefield 3 and Bioshock 3 both come with 1 FREE game a piece. Awesome!).

[cruxito]

ive been following Bioschock infinite since it was announced n never heard of Bioschock3 being in development. I hope Kevin is behind this game too .

[blumatt]

I was referring to Bioshock Infinite when I said "Bioshock 3". haha

[jack_burt0n]

bioshock 2 never happened.....................

[ForROME]

A TiElite I agree, what many people dont realize is the most systems over time are sold at a price of 199 that seems to be the magic number if you look at stats over the gens.

249 the closer to that 199 the better

[littlebigmarcpsps3]

lol agreed
just got another ps3 for 280 with free shipping on ebay 160GB
brand new.
this is for people who dont use the net that much xD

[Gamerfans]

im buying one for our bedroom! Wow what a deal!

[BenEViolent]

Let me guess: you work on that site? Getting a buck or 2 for every person that clicks through and buys something?

[Thecraft1989]

The way the ps3 is selling it really dose not need a price drop anytime soon. I don't think we will see one to around next year when WII U comes out.

[Pedobear Rocks]

And MS keeps dropping the 250GB to 199 here there and everywhere...are they trying to squeeze out a few more sales before they both drop the price?

[ForROME]

Likely clearing out old Skus, for a 199 and 299 sku, MS needs to put kinect sports in a 250 kinect bundle for 299

Sony needs to get away from this package sku crap and just go with a base system at 249, with a 250GB hard drive

[kma2k]

im hoping this forces microsofts hand, I want the price drop on the 4gb xbox to $150.00 i already have a ps3.

[Pedobear Rocks]

Since Xmas I've seen the 4GB for 99 or 129 about 10 times already....3 weeks ago I picked up the 4GB WITH Kinect for 179.

[kma2k]

I responsed to an earlier post of yours, serisouly where did you see this? I went on dell.ca like you said earlier & only the 4gb w/kenect was there. Where can i get a 4gb for $150 or less? Or where did you get the 4gb w/kinect for $179?

And i dont mean $150.00 if you count the gift cards they are giving away, i dont need or want a gift card throw in, i mean $150 retail?

[Pedobear Rocks]

@kmac...

Bestbuy and Futureshop in Canada both recently had the 4GB w/ kinect for 179 including kinect.

Walmart, Bestbuy and Futureshop regularly have had the 4GB under 130 and shoppers Drugmart just had it for 99 a couple of weeks back.

Dell.ca had the Xbox 250gb on for 199 today (one day sale sold out thus why you dont see it...if you go to the sale page you will see a one line disclaimer at the top saying it is sold out) and FS recently had if for this price too, London Drugs had it for 189.

See: http://forums.redflagdeals....

I presume similar sales are all over the US too as our market is very similar to yours.

I didn't bother to read but have to laugh after reading the title and intro to this article...

"The PS3 Doesn't Need a Price Drop after This Incredible $60 Deal.

So really all these clowns are point out is that...PS3 looks really attractive to them with a... price cut. Official or not...its a price cut that got their attention.

[BenEViolent]

Why does N4g allow these? That site is making money for every sale that clicks through. This isn't news.

[SweatyFlorida]

It is news? Do you know what "news" means?

[OC_MurphysLaw]

Umm... sorry but this isn't news. All that "article" is, is an ad for this deal. Definitely NOT news. I would classify it as more of an Advertorial than anything.

[BenEViolent]

Do you know how this works? https://affiliate-program.a...

It's an ad, not news.

[SweatyFlorida]

1st definition by typing in news in google
News - "Newly received or noteworthy information, esp. about recent or important events"

I never heard of this deal, so its news to me, and news to others judging by the comments. But yes it is an ad as well ;)

[Ja555on]

news or not this is a deal that i am interested in and might buy it, and i wouldn't have seen it otherwise, so for me at least it was very useful

[KonigNxt]

Awesome deal. I would sell my original 60GB PS3 and pick that one up if it weren't for mine being backwards compatible...

A fresh new PS3 sounds so tempting.

[EazyC]

Where is the cheapest place to get ps3 60gb fat? Or any fat model, really.

[TBONEJF]

THAT'S A STEAL! AND PLEASE STOP TALKING BOUT PS3 NEEDS A PRICE DROP THE SYSTEM STILL SELLS!

[IAML36I0N]

$100 off 160,320 GB PS3's for Powerup Reward members bout 2 weeks ago. Stupid me didn't use it. :/

[SSKILLZ]

Really? dang, that was a steal.

[TheBeast]

Looks at amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/pr...

Hmm tqcascom is in the url...and oh snap, ref=referrer...this site is making money if you but it under that url. Reported.

Great deal though.

[Ja555on]

that really sucks, i was going to do it as well

[Darkseeker]

The PS3 still needs a pricedrop. That deal is for amazon.com only, so this is only for US. This deal is completely worthless for anyone living outside the US.

[tubers]

@Biggest:

Wow "most" homes? Yeah right.. Then again I may be just nitpicking on you. I assure you MOST homes in the world don't have more than 1 SDTV, if any.

[silencedwriter]

PS3 is a great deal right now.
