Shack PSA: Buy PS3, Get $100 Wal-Mart Gift Card
by Aaron Linde, Jun 11, 2008 11:42am PDTMonolithic retailer Wal-Mart is offering a $100 gift card with the purchase of any Blu-ray player, which includes all PlayStation 3 systems, even the $499 80GB PS3 and Metal Gear Solid 4 bundle that arrives tomorrow.
"Any Blu-ray player. Blu-ray. All of them," Wal-Mart spokeswoman Melissa O'Brien told Joystiq. The promotion appeared in the retailer's weekly flyer, but it is not clear when the deal is set to end.
The deal applies to both in-store and online purchases, and is likely to prove quite a draw for those gamers who have held out on purchasing a PlayStation 3 until tomorrow's release of Kojima Productions' Metal Gear Solid 4 (PS3).
Other currently available varieties include the $399 40GB version, and the $499 80GB version which has been largely phased out to make way for the new MGS4 bundle. For a comprehensive rundown on Sony's complicated family of PlayStation 3 models, check out our buyer's guide.

I commend the guy who apparently showed up at 8pm waiting back at site to store thinking the line would be much longer. Dedication. I honestly thought the demand would be higher than it was, i didnt show up til 11:20.
Anyhoo, finally a PS3 owner, looking foward to some MGS4/Blu-Ray action tonight.
Why don't we ask him about his experience owning the system? Oh right he's never owned one.
Maybe he can get a job doing long term reviews of cars he's never owned too.

My 80GB only came with a composite cable. BluRay and all that and they give you a stinkin' composite video cable.
