If you didn't blindly jump on a PS3 purchase when the new Slim console was dropped, there are a few pretty good deals to be had.
Why settle for the Slim's 120GB when $50 can get you 40 more GB of storage, a voucher for PAIN on PSN, and the excellent Naughty Dog game Uncharted? Amazon has a sale on the 160GB Uncharted PS3 bundle right now, so you had better jump on that. Gamespot says that this will run until supplies of the discontinued system run out.
If you really had your heart set on the PS3 Slim, this Sony deal might interest you. Nab a Sony Visa card and your first purchase of $299 or more will get you $100 credited to your account. That's $199 for a PS3 Slim 120GB.
In related news, we noticed that DualShock 3 are on sale for $42.99 at Amazon.

Guess not...
Did you even read it?
Sorry, I'm not going to open another credit card thereby lowering my credit rating for $100. Traps like this is why so much of America is in debt.
Well actually, if you charged the PS3 slim @ 299.00, and then waited the first cycle to pay, then paid $199.00 towards the balance, the credit for 100.00 from Sony would then pay the remaining balance. This would allow for only 199.00 out of pocket.

Just calm down. If the grownups want to get the credit card and then go for the Slim 'deal', that's their business. Not everyone is effected the same way by cards with high APRs. I'm sure most normal adults will look into such issues before committing, and if they don't... shame on them.
Relax man.
A person being 18 or older is not the same as a person being mature and responsible. Plenty of people sign up for credit cards and have no idea what they are getting themselves into. Why do you think the United States has a debt problem, especially with young adults? Because they don't know what they're getting themselves into. And I'm pretty sure lots of people will look at this and say "wow, all I have to do is sign up and I get $100 off? that's an amazing deal!" and they wont have any clue that getting the card will effect them in other ways.

If you can live without a CC, you shouldn't have any problem living with one. Just spend money like you do now (more in than out) and you'll be building your credit for when you need a real loan (house/car). Living CC free now may seem like a smart decision, but you'll regret it later. Overall a much better decision to just learn simple restraint.
game itself has to look the same. If you play TP again, you'll notice that Link doesn't
look entirily the same as in the concept art. In the art he looks pretty tough, while in
the game he looks kinda goofy.
