    For the first time i'm 1st

    I guess that's cool but i don't care about them releasing any new bundles or sku's if they don't have bc.

    i think bundles are good because it shows that sony is making a profit on ps3's now and they come with some cool games.

    Stop complaining about BC.  Many of the people who purchase PS3 games, hardly play their PS2 games anymore, or if they do, they can play them on the PS2 that they still have.  I have the 80gig with partial BC and I still don't play any PS2 games on it.  This is a good bundle is a good deal seeing as the last bundle (MGS4) was $500 with the 80gig.  Now it's a $100 cheaper and you're getting a blu-ray with it.

    The whole I need BC is to old. First they say it cost to much. Now they complain they can't play super old games. SHUT UP. Go to a Pawn Shop and get a 60 GB for around $375. They have tons and cost less then a new one. As for the new Sku. I think its great. Will make a lot of HDTV's complete this winter.

    bundles are good for cheap people who don't want to spend alot, right now i'm trying not spend alot because "no job' economy is bad.  i did have one at a bar and grill but, they decided they didn't need dishwashers. i was going to buy a sony bravia for my  room and get rid of my 32" RCA. maybe nxt year i'll update my t.v.

     They're probably getting rid of all the non-Special Edition discs of Casino Royale...

    good move, Sony.

    its 2009 basicly since this year wave of games came out or on its way out. what i'm saying is if you own a ps3 already why do you want B/C so bad. go out  and buy a ps2 plus most of the new ps2 games are on ps3.

     

      if you dont own a ps3 i'm guessing you still own a ps2 and when you do own a ps3. should i say more.....

    R&C is A fantastic game but... LBP would make it GODLY!!! and Casino Royale is pretty old, The bundle's a little wierd to be honest a game that looks like it's aimed at children and a serious film aimed at teens/adults seems like a wtf? bundle to me.

    bundle's and more budles,this wont help the PS3 sale's.

    As i said sony needs to even the PS3 price to that of 360 elite version,thats the only way to sell more PS3,wich also means over take 360 worlwide.
