And £117.99 for the Black Nintendo 3DS at Bee.com. Or try in store for the aqua Nintendo 3DS as they were selling these for £99.99.

online they are out of the aqua versions and the black on is up to £189.99, so Amazon is still looking the cheapest to me at £129.99 (for blue or black, the red version is £10 more)

Anyone got any further ideas before I make my purchase?

Thanks

Do you have a BestBuy near you? They were selling aqua versions for £112.49 in store last week. Only just spotted this.

Uncharted 3 Hardbundle Inc Faster Blu Ray + 6 games £229 at HMV

As well as Uncharted 3 the offer bundle also includes:

320GB PS3 console
Batman Arkham City
Battlefield 3
Fifa 12
Need For Speed: The Run
Saints Row The Third
Driver San Francisco

Just incase anyone is cocerned, the bluray is actually inside the Uncharted box.

Incidentally, all these games can be traded in for £135 in cash at CeX.

To find your local CeX shop go here.

Or try Game/Gamestation/HMV, Gamestation for trade-ins as well if you have no luck with CeX. Or do the trade-in online.

Is this all for £229? I think it's actually £299 but please correct me if I'm wrong! Was also disappointed that all the Xmas deals seem to have ended for the PS3 bundles. Am wondering if it's now better to wait until after Xmas to get one? Any thoughts?

Thank you so much for your previous advice, it is very much appreciated.

Is the above really the 320GB version (I can't seem to see this anywhere on the page, unless I'm just being blind again) - all for £299 with all those games as well?

I was going for the Move bundle off Amazon but if this is the 320GB version it seems much better value for money with the games you could trade in.

Or as it is £70 dearer than the £229 Amazon offer maybe the Amazon one is best for me. I hate buying dear things, I never want to make a mistake purchase or miss a better deal.

My apologies, this bundle is actually £299.99 as you've pointed out. And yes Dragonfly I can verify the console is a 320GB version.

I've also updated my post.

You may be approx. £135 quids in if you trade in the games as well. So effectively the console can be had for approx. £164.99. Not bad for a 320GB console. You may also be able to trade these games in for other games too, depends which way you think is most cost effective though.

The source where I spotted this bundle doesn't actually say when this offer ends though it does appear to be still on so grab it soon if you want to take advantage.

It is possible there will be another offer like this one after Christmas as well as it appears these type of offers are getting more frequent. There was also one on just over a week ago that included eight games though that was short lived. This offer may also be short lived as well as the previous one was only running for one week.

The previous offer I mention above may actually be still on and may only be available in-store at both Game and Gamestation. Just double checked this though can't guarantee it.

Just bought a bundle from GAME..... Xbox 360 320GB Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Console with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Forza Motorsport 4 & FIFA 12 for £239.99

Just editing to confirm that this does also come with 2 controllers rather than one and both are limited edition MW3.

Xbox 360 320GB Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Console with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Forza Motorsport 4 & FIFA 12 - £239.99 at Game as posted by 00kamil.

Apparently, if you buy online you get the same bundle as in store exept with Battlefield 3 instead of FIFA 12. If you want to swap FIFA 12 in store for Battlefield it's an extra £20. So best to buy online if you prefer Battlefield 3.

You also get two controllers with this offer as well. I'm sure 00kamil can verify this.
