Hmm. Dell has a pretty amazing deal right now if anyone is in the market for a PS3.

$280 snags a 40G PS3, with Resistance: Fall of Man and NBA'08.

That's around $180 under market cost for the console and the games!

"Probably a mistake" indeed; it seems to be gone now.

I'm happy with my refurbished 60G w/ hardware compatibility, but I *do* have a ton of PS1/PS2 games. I hear it upscales them really nicely for HDTVs (which I don't have yet, but plan to get sometime reasonably soon).

If you do get one, I'll totally exchange (completely useless) friend codes with you. ;)

Cool.

Yeah, my order is yet to be canceled, but I'm hearing that it probably will be tomorrow or Friday. Ah well. If it does get canceled, I'm probably just going make use of Walmart's PS3 w/free $100 Gift Card offer. Best Buy is "price matching" the offer as well, apparently.

I did in fact make use of the Best Buy price matching. how do friend codes work?

I have no games yet--although a used copy of "Uncharted" is winging it's way here very slowly.

Any recommendations? The games I'm thinking about include Portal, Elder Scrolls IV, Fallout 3 (when it comes out).... Oh, and Rock Band. :)
