PlayStation 3 Bundles Top Hardware Sellers at Best Buy
See Full ImageWhen we first heard about a PlayStation 3 bundle that featured Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and Killzone 2 - arguably the two best titles available on the machine - we said to ourselves, "this can't miss."
And so it hasn't. According to PunchJump, this Best Buy exclusive bundle has become the best-selling hardware SKU at the retailer's online division. Yep, as of Monday, this great package was ranked #1 in that division, and you only get one guess as to what's #2...it's the other PS3 bundle that includes LittleBigPlanet and a Blu-Ray copy of the movie, "WALL-E." If you've been looking for a replacement PS3 or - for some strange reason - haven't yet jumped onto the Sony bandwagon, either of these bundles is an excellent option. Getting MGS4 and KZ2 for free is our pick, of course, but we leave that decision up to you. If you want more incentive to spend some cash, head on over to Amazon.com, where you will find the freshly discounted inFamous on sale for $44.99. So you can save fifteen bucks on this excellent exclusive if you haven't already played it, and this leads us to the culmination: if you wanted, you could right now pick up the 80GB PS3, MGS4, KZ2, and inFamous all for less than $450, and that's nearly $600 normally. It can be tough to find great deals in gaming, but this is undeniably one of the better ones of 2009.
And the success of these bundles at Best Buy also proves that the PS3 is selling quite well, despite the fact that we haven't hit the holiday heyday just yet.

I am working on my next platinum trophy. I started back playing Deadspace. That game is awesome, but I never finished it. So I'm gonna finish it tomorrow and get the rest of the Trophies on my next play-through. Then...Platinum Baby!!

that is by far the best game ive played on the ps3.
just do me a favor for infamous 2, when im doing missions can i have less enemies shooting me.
it gets extremely frustrating when im trying to go from point A to B but cant because every time i go to run i have 25 enemies shooting me.
so than i get distracted or frustrated kill all of them than move another meter than theres another 25 enemies.
by the time ive gone from mission start to mission checkpoint 3 hours have passed.

There goes ever getting a platinum on a game. Don't think I can play a single game so many times.

It'll be interesting to see how the Slim is designed. If Sony's smart, they'll keep the HDD's as easy to swap as they are now.

MGS4 + KZ2 BUNDLE HERE I COME!!! Hopefully they are still in stock. I am praying that they're still in stock!
Oh and I don't care about how bulky the PS3 is. To me the original PS3 looks sick as it is. Only problem being that it won't be too portable where you can bring it along with you on a trip or something like that.
