MGS ps3 or wait for 80gb core pack in september?

May be...

is it a better deal to buy the MGS pack while it is out, or wait for the 80gb core pack to come out next month?

While The MGS4 Pack Comes with this:

-MGS4,

-A voucher for a game download(Pain)

- 4 usb ports

-80% of PS2 games will work

- And it has flash card readers

- Chrome strip

-$500



The Core

- 2 USB Ports

-No PS2 games will Work

-No Flash Card readers

-No Chrome strip

- Only $400



Well those are pretty much the differences,

I Like The MGS4 Pack better, Because MGS4 is $60+Tax Anyway so for an extra $100 You Get:

MGS4($60), Note MGS4 is a must have game!



So For an extra $40

Pain,

2 more usb ports than the core,

80% of PS2 games work,

flash card readers

and a Chrome strip in the front!

If you have Ps2 games and want MGS4 the MGS4 bundle is probs best idea, though its running out, so buy ASAP.

hwoever if you still have a PS2, or dont have any Ps2 gmaes the core is cheaper, so not much point paying for a game you might nto want, or Ps2 palyback if you already have a PS2 or no Ps2 games, the extra ports n car reader dont really make much diffrence, ive never needed any mroe than the two i got.

oh n you don need to wati till spetmebr it cmae out last firday (at least it did in UK)

Im in the same position and thats even the reason why i looked at this question. considering that i am on a tight budget and can only affourd the 399 one. (because my mom broke her promise on getting me one) Althought it is nice to have the more expensive console, why not, the chrome trim makes it look that much more expensive, 4 usb ports and even so you get the added bonuses of a free MGS4 game, a voucher for pain and Memory slots and play PS2 games. Hardrive isnt an issue and more and you get the dual shock 3 in both systems. If i where you i would go for the MGS4 bundle, Like me i will defintly buy this game and the rest is like bonuses for only $40, but either way u are going to get a great console. You hould already have a PS2 and if you dont the PS2 games should be a problem. and if you want 4 usb ports a memory slot chips you can buy the nyko media hub for $20 making as good as the 80gb PS3 but without the trim and PS2 games playback. If you have the money and can find one, go for the MGS4 PS3, If you dont have the money write now for the more expensive console you cant go wrong with the 80gb core model. Hope you choose the right console for you and best of all, enjoy your PS3.

get the mgs pack now! sure its 100 more but it also has ps2 playback the sd, pro duo, and cf card slots, also 2 more usb ports in front, the 80 gb core pack that is coming out doesnt have ps2 playback, nor the other items i mention!

GET THE MGS PS3 NOW AND I MEEN NOW (THE CAPS ARE VERY NECESSARY). IT INCLUDEDS EVERYTHING THE 80GB SKU HAS PLUS BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY AND MORE USB PORTS

I just came across a site that sends you a Playstation 3 for free! I'm ordering mine right now.
