So I think I've finally decided to get a PS3. I've done some looking around and decided to get the 299 model but I'm just having a really hard time spending that much money on another system when I have a Wii, 360, and PS2 already, especiially knowing I have to buy a new set of games right away too. My question is how much cheaper do they generally get over the holidays? Would it be worth it to wait untill christmas topick one up or will they be about the same price. Also does anyone think that then they launch Move there will be a price cut on the stand alone systmes without move? Thanks for any input.

If you mean christmas holidays then i got my PS3 slim about a month after release with 2 free games for £10 cheaper than the console alone... Shop around and do some digging into special offers you'll save a good bit by doing that.. Plus my free games were LBP and Uncharted 2 so even better!! Just have a look around you'll find something nice...

Edit: A quick look at google and i found This.. The 250Gb model with 2 free games for £284.99

Well if you live in the states then you got black friday which will have some deals this year. Especially with Move coming out. Im sure they are gonna push that this holliday and try to take out Big N. Games will be 20 dollars cheaper consoles will prolly be 50 off.

Thanks for the advice. I was thinking about waiting for Black Friday but its one of those days I hate to leave my house. People go nuts around here and you can hardly get around town especially because of huge outlet mall. Maybe I'll brave the hoards though and check it out.

First things first. Ps3 is a great system to own. Secondly they may come out with some kind of bundle for the holidays but got to wait and see. As far as the move bundle goes I am sure that won't come right away with a price cut. Welcome to the playstation world! You made the right decision!
