I’d definitely go with the bundle. If you’re a gamer, you’d buy the Best Buy bundle. If you’re a parent, you’d pick up the Blockbuster bundle.

The $299 system is going to be for those that want to pick up a second system or who want an upgradeable Blu Ray player. It will no doubt get many people to buy a console.

When the old systems are gone, then these will sell like crazy. Do we know if these slim systems will be void of any features since they are slimmer?

I’m gonna have to go with the bundle. I like the slim and all. Looks nice, but you’re getting MGS4 and Killzone 2. There’s your single player and you’re multiplayer games right there. Only problem is that there’s still no backwards compatibility. I know it’s nitpicking, but man, there’s just way too many great PS2 games to pass up. I got the MGS4 bundle when it first came out so I got the BC. If the rumors are true that they’re working on bringing BC in an update I’m all for both options. Honestly, the PS3 is so open as far as media and accessibility goes that even the most hardcore Xbox guys cannot ignore. If you haven’t got a PS3 yet, one of these needs to be your choice. You can’t pass this up.

Damn that bundle is a really good deal, both those games are excellent reasons to own a PS3. I want to buy another PS3 for the living room but I think I will wait for the Slim. If you guys can’t wait for the Slim then I highly recommend this bundle since it’s the regular price of a stand-alone PS3 and it gives you two of the best, must-have games on the system.

Me personally, Slim. If I didn’t have a PS3 yet, and had 4bills on me, I would say that the Killzone 2 and MGS4 bundle would be sooooo tempting, but If I have waited this long to buy a PS3, might as well be A SLIM. I would be consider an official “PS3 slim kid”.

And by the way, I say Slim out before November, and same time as firmware 3.0.
