    Dont buy anything till Wednesday, they are discontinuing the 60GB and bringing out a budget 40GB version for £299 and having a sale on the 60GB
  • thanks for this. i knew the 40gb was coming out but i don't want it because it does play ps2 games but i didn't think there would be a sale on the 60gb. thanks for this.

    The 40GB version comes out tomorrow so it is worth checking the internet and stores for deals in the morning. I have been waiting for Sony to reduce the price and I’m also after the 60GB model because of the bargain deal. If I don’t get this version then I’ll settle for the 40GB one this week. I don’t expect it to be as difficult as securing a Nintendo Wii but I reckon the 60GB model will sell out by Xmas.


    I have heard Virgin are selling the 60GB model with two games and an extra Sixaxis controller for £349.99 making it the best deal. I cannot confirm this so it is worth checking up.


    HMV have the best deal (if Virgin are wrong) on the 60GB console with two games and a blu-ray for £349.99:

    GAME have the 60GB model with two games for £349.99. Remember to use Quidco and the rewards card for more savings!!

    It’s also worth checking Woolworths because they do good deals on console bundles. I got my Nintendo Wii for a good price there last year. There’s also a 10% discount coupon that expires on Friday.

    For the 40GB model, Shopto.net are selling for £279.99. I think they are a reputable store but you will need to check-up on the internet to make sure.

    Hope this helps. :j

    dissapointed to goto blockbusters today only to find they havnt even got stock in, said to come back in a few hours. rubbish.
  • Many places are now doing deals at £350. At Currys you get 2 games and the console (including the controller) for £350. Is there any deals that are around this price anywhere else?
