Other Game Bundles For the Cost of the PS3

ImaNumber writes "When Sony announced the price of the PS3 many people were left dumbfounded at how expensive it was going to be. Microsoft joked that people would get the Xbox360 and the Wii instead. Brittlefish has taken this a step further and put together a list of some other gaming 'bundles' that you could buy instead of just getting one PS3. You might be surprised at what you can get for that kind of money."

    Personally I'm thinking that the WII with a stand made from $400 in cash seems like a pretty interesting option.

    38 degrees = 100.4 American degrees.

    One American degree is the number of Big Gulps one must consume to remain hydrated.

    I'm sure everyone else with a 1080p set is also looking forward to the PS3. All four of them.

    Am I going crazy, or are the editors here getting geometrically worse over time?

    No, the editors are only getting linearly worse over time. However, the general quality of the posts (and for that matter, the moderation) is getting exponentially worse, so maybe that's where the confusion comes from. :-)
