So I'm looking for a PS3, and I'm looking to get the good SKU (The All inclusive 80GB) and not the 80GB core. But on both the Future Shop and Best Buy websites, I see an 80 GB and a 40 GB both for 399.99. Is the $399.99 80GB SKU the core model, or the full model, because I'm sure the full model is more than $399.99.

That $399.99 80GB would the "core" version. I think they dis-continued the better 80GB, didn't they?

You can't be serious. I just checked wiki and it said that it's still in production. All I want is a Blu-ray player, MGS4 and BC. I reeealllyy don't wanna buy used.

Most big retailers place are sold out on these, you won't find one. You may have a chance to get one at video rental store where they also sell console. That where I found my 60Gb in the initial frenzy after all. If you have any microplay where you're at try there maybe

Well it's damn near impossible to find it in a store. I'd say buy a "core"80GB and MGS4 then if you really want BC just buy a PS2, they're like $129.99 now.

I'm sorry but I just find that too funny, wiki? did you know I could go on there right now and say that PS3's are being made for the next 500 years? never trust wiki, anyway like a previous poster said the MGS4 bundle is $500 just to let you know.

Hrmmm, i bought mine at costco bro.

They are very good with returns. Told me if anything went wrong beyond the 1 year warrenty I could just bring it back and they would link up a new one. (hopefully this never happens...*knock on wood* cause I like my 60 gig.)

Anyways check out costco.

You need the 80GB MGS4 bundle, which is $500CDN. Some EB Games outlets have them - the other major retailers don't, and that MGS4 bundle is long gone from their systems.

The 80GB I've seen at Costco is simply a core unit with an extra controller and MGS4 slapped in it - it's not the retail bundle. May be different at other Costcos, though, but I doubt it.

You'll have to phone around to see who has the official bundle left. Once it's gone, BC is finished.

If it's the 80GB MGS4 bundle you want, you'll have a better chance finding it eBay. If your not too worried about B/C (just buy a PSX or PS2), just buy the core model. You can also find a 20GB or 60GB which has full B/C but they are rare to find.
