AMAZING deal, Buy a PS3 starting July 1st get 5 FREE bluray movies OR.....

The Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA) has revealed an exciting offer for those of you who are still looking to pick up a Blu-ray player. If you purchase a Blu-ray player (including the PS3) between July 1st and September 30th, you will automatically qualify to receive 5 Blu-ray movies absolutely free. Combine this with existing offers (like the 5 free Blu-ray movies with purchase of a Panasonic DMP-BD10A), and you could receive up to 10 free Blu-ray movies with the purchase of a player.

But wait, there's more! http://www.n4g.com/ps3/News-48035.aspx

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EDIT: Buying a PS3 after July 1st gets you 5 FREE bluray movies and if you buy two games with it you get a $50 gift card also!

That's a damn good deal, although it REEKS of desperation.MegaPigeon

What smells of desperation is Nintendo fanboys hating on good news.

How is bundling $160 worth of movies with a games console NOT desperation? You'd have to be pretty desperate to be willing to loose another $160 on each unit sold just to get it into the consumer's hands.

that is a sweet deal. Fumpa

B3yond sweet ! :P

Time to buy a 2nd PS3.

ill take a bribe :P. i checked out the game part of the offer.....no dice sony. $50 back as a gift voucher after buying a PS3 and a few games? try harder. i have no interest in the movie side of things.

still an offer like that could put another nail in HD-DVds coffin.

Maybe they care about people and it's not all about the money ? like nintendo charging $250 for a Gamecube 1.5 with waggle control....biggest rip off ever.

So in other words it's a prize draw and not an 'amazing deal' as the TC put it....

So let's totally clarify this, when eitherMS or Nintendobundle, it's desperation when Sony bundles, it's because they care for the consumer. Another fine example of Bovineocrisy...

seems the bda isn't as confindent in bluray as sony seems to be.

very desperate move...

WRONG, anyone who buys a PS3 starting July 1st is eligible for these offers.

Read the thread at the fatwallet link you provided. You actually have to purchase the PS3, 2games and a controller. Only then will you receive a $50 discount card. Thats why the thread is rated negative there.

$600 + 60 game1+ 60 game2+ 50 = $770 - 50 (gc) = $720 out of pocket :D

You can remember that when the Wii puts a DS-over-PSP azz stomping down on the PS3.

Seriously, LMFAO @ Sony's " advanced technology " getting stomped into nothingness by a Gamecube 1.5 and its little cousin GBA 2.0

Look on the bright side, at least it's better then a Vegas Casino, which gives you a players card and after you circulat $500 and accumulat 500 points, they'll give you $5 back...

Wow, you could get a PS3, 5 BD movies, MotorStorm, VF5 and Resistance for 599. That is a great deal.pins_basic

I think the GBA just out-sold the PS3 again. Whoopsie huh?

LMFAO @ The totally owned " true next-generation " bowing before Nintendo.

Just called Sony ****Store in VA and confirmed that the promotion is nationwide from June 17 until July 8. Good luck to those that get 1.

But wait, there's more! If you decide you would like to purchase a PS3, Sony is offering a special deal through their retail Sony Style stores. Purchase a PS3, two games, and an extra controller from now until July 8th, and you will receive a $50 gift card.

GuessTC forgot to mention this part...

keep up the hate you're just practicing self ownage.

this is awesome news i don't know why there's so many haters, i guess when people see the PS3 is a threath to their consoles wii/360 they get scared and need to flame others.

lmao, maybe its good news for you but bad news for Sony. It seems like they are getting more and more desperate. Weren't they bundling a TV with PS3s a while back? Looks like that didn't work out so now they are bundling movies.

I'm unsure about that but the 5 FREE bluray movies offer comes with every PS3 bought after July 1st.

That's a damn good deal, although it REEKS of desperation.MegaPigeon

seems the bda isn't as confindent in bluray as sony seems to be.

very desperate move...

tango90101

Does that apply to HD-DVD as well?

A raffle? what are you talking about???? EVERYONE who buys a bluray player that includes a PS3 get 5 FREE movies.

Tell that to the HDDVD fanboys, that keep saying a console sales doesn't count as blu-ray players or a console won't win the format war.

The Ps3 is just a console as much as the iPhone is just a cellphone.

This is a deal made by the Blu-ray association. I doubt that they're desperate as they are the market leader :?.

Especially considering free movies have been offered with HD-DVD Player purchases several times now.

Bluray is winning the format war by a margin of 5:1 they don't need to give away 5 free blu ray movies with the purchase of a PS3/bluray player, but they are doing it and who wins? the consumer.

How does that reek of desperation?

Dude, you have to buy a lot more to get the 50 dollars off. Lazy_not_fat

5 bluray movies = $150 +

+ 2 games you were gonna buy anyways = $50 gift certificate

Your total savings = $200 ++

EDIT: keep in mind you don't need to buy the two games to get the 5 free bluray movies, all you have to do is PURCHASE A PS3.
