Been looking to purchase a PS3 for quite some time and finally have enough to shell out and get one. My questions are is this a good time to purchase a ps3 SLIM 120gb? Are there any problems with their new model? Is anything going to be released at E3 that I should wait before purchasing one? Thanks.

I doubt anything will happen at E3 but you might as well wait that couple of weeks just in case.

I think e3 will be flat this time around. But it is a ok time to get a ps3, even though the online sucks, it has really good games like Uncharted 2, GOW 3 and Heavy Rain. I mainly played the single player portions because the online feels empty..nobody has mics.

? PS3s online is just fine, and free...

I personally would wait until after Sony's press conference. I think there is a good chance they will announce a new PS3 bundle that you might be interested in. Plus that way you'll be certain you like PS3s software lineup.

If you've waited this long you might as well just wait till after E3 just incase something pops up.

I'm addicted, don't do it... save yourself, RUN!!! :shock:

No, I'm kidding... about the running part, we're gamers, we don't EXERT ourselves... puh-LEASE...

... but the addiction part? No BS. Seriously. I got a 120G a few months ago with "World at War"? And I haven't left the house... I've got a goodly amount of the trophies, and I'm ranked out online with a better understanding of the maps than my own neighborhood, and I've lived here for over 10 years, you copy? It's the greatest thing since the last greatest thing, it's bigger than an iPad and you can't walk it in the park so basically it won't impress too many chicks, but I'm tellin' ya...

... it's great. Go get youz one. We can exchange PSN IDs and refuse to walk in sunlight ever AGAIN.

:D

Apparently they have already started putting Little Big Planet and a HDMI cord in the boxes now. But I would wait until after E3 before doing anything.

Move coming this year means that the PS3 could have a bundle for cheaper than buying them seperate. I doubt that the PS3 itself will get a price drop, unless temporary. I think Sony is going to add a lot of stuff to the PS3 this year, but most of it will probably come at a price(Premium PSN option, Move,unknown stuff).

Wait till after e3, with the move about to come out, i expect that sony will bundle the move with new purchases after it comes out, and considering it has a diffrent layout than the regualr ps3 remote, it will probably come with the regualr remote to, or wait for best buy or walmart to come out with a good bundle, oh and also get whichever model is the cheapest, not one with a bigger hard drive, getting an upgrade drive for the ps3 is easy and cheap, but even then, it took me a long time to fill up past the default
