Re: Official PS3 Thread - March 09 Edition

I think it's for any Blu-Ray or DVD, the top of my email says:
"Thank you for purchasing a DVD or Blu-ray disc from Amazon.com. This purchase entitles you to $5 in credit on select NBC content at the Amazon Video On Demand store. "

I pre-ordered Monsters, Inc. yesterday, but I technically haven't bought anything. That must be it though.

Or looking at the random posting and sign up date, like someone is trying to earn their linking wings. I'll hold out hope that you are right.

If this posting is indeed true (I doubt it), the PS3 slim might be out in Sept.

If that ad is real, what I'm interested in are the "$9.99" titles like Uncharted and MGS4. I still need to get those two.
I don't get the big deal about a slim PS3 (or any slim console for that matter), but the lower price will be nice for those who are considering getting one.

^ Is that all the new update will address? I guess I can save myself time spent downloading another update.

I got in on the MAG Beta. Did anyone else? I thought it was a small download (250+MB) but after you download that then there is a 2+GB download you have to do. My PS3 is in the middle of downloading it right now.

Re: Official PS3 Thread - March 09 Edition
I just got in as well. I was really suprised that the download was 248mb. But I guess the 2gb download I have ahead of me makes sense. Thanks for the heads up on that.
Anyone want a beta invite for Supercar? You have to have a UK account. I only have one. Let me know here and I'll pm you the code.
