I'm just wondering if its just here in Europe or are all stores becoming very desperate to sell this console with the brand name of sony and the fact that both it predecessors were the winners of their gen you would think the console would sell itself plus it does luk mighty cool :), for instance GAME (www.game.net) were after the first few weeks upon release started giving away free HDMI cables, then a month later are now giving away free games, i also find it strange that the console is still readily available while the Wii has only just come back in stock! . so really what im asking is any ps3 owners out there feeling abit worried that they backed the wrong console and are their any possible future owners who are feeling like they should leave it awhile longer and see how things work out ?

I went into EB today and saw a cardboard stand offering a discount of $300 if you trade in 10 games.

Lol, what a lie.  I could've bought $1 boxing day games and trade them in for 300? I don't think so.

I am guessing the fine print would say you could only use games they would normally pay $30 each for.

I did not take the time to read it, seeing as how I was searching for a copy of Pokemon Pearl.

That is BS!  EB would never be that generous no matter what!

Its just business. Ofcourse they would give away HDMI cables free with it, the same as giving away 2 games free with it. The PS3 release was about as big and as hyped in the UK as the 360 release was.
