I bought my PS3 on launch and couldnt be any more happy with it. Great system, only problem has been a dry spell in solid games. Now that good quality games are starting to pop-up this thing is even better.

However, I have missed out on the 5 free Blu-Rays and the 80GB for the same price. Or have I? A few weeks ago I went back to Gamestop (yuck) and bought a new game. I then took that reciept, scanned it into my printer along with my old PS3 reciept, then did a little editing. I sent my "new" reciept along with my upc and the orderform into the Blu-Ray offer place in TX and now have 5 "good" blu-rays.

For the 80GB PS3 I plan on saying my current PS3 is damaged and returning it to Gamestop (yuck again) with my origional reciept after the 60GB has been discontuned. I paid the extra for the extended warranty offer (60 bucks or something). The policy states that they have to replace your system or refund the cash. Thus they cant downgrade you to a lesser system.

Hope this helps you guys who went all Die Hard and bought the PS3 on launch. Best of luck.

Say what you like, but it worked for me. Just throwing it out there. Never said you had to do it. Just saying if you do it works. Now the 60GB to 80GB switch is perfectly legit.
