so then... I should be able to go to EB and pick up old 80gig for much less than $299?
that might be better than going to craigslist... cuz ppl are still selling theirs over $300

I called eb and it is 49.99 + 2 of your own games with tiv over 8 bucks for a new ps3 slim. What i read from the op was we would receive 2 games? Which is incorrect.

My friend went to the EB by the Queensborough bridge and found out you can bring in your old fat PS3 and get a slim version + 2 free games for $49.99.
Source is 99% confirmed, better act on it ASAP.
Cheers !!!!! | you say 80gig +$49.99 for slim and + 2 games
PS3 thread says 80GIG + 2games + $49.99 for slim
yours sounds more reasonable, other one is total scam

FFUUUUU | go to best buy, I think they are offering a free game to prevent you from returning the phat one.
But if it's >30 days, then you are out of luck

ilvtofu do you read? oO Its a Fat PS3 + 2 Games + $50 = a Slim PS3
The PS3 Slim is:
Smaller
Quieter (by 10db)
Bitstreams lossless audio (it means nothing other than seeing your receiver say "Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HDMA" instead of MPCM,PCM)
uses less energy (45nm chip, etc, etc)
supposedly operates faster (yet to be confirmed but rumored)
doesnt let you install Linux anymore

I also read somewhere that the slim uses 34% less power than the original as a result of more efficient circuitry and smaller transistors.
