[Ubuntuの刀]

I wanna play UMVC3, but it's for PS3. SO! Where can I get a cheap PS3 in stores preferably?

Yes, I know there is google, but I liek u guise's opinions.
I'm gonna play LoL. I'll check back l8r.

FYI: There is a Xbox 360 version in case you want to for that but since you are in the PS3 section, I'll give you PS3 advice. (PS Fan anyway!)

So, you have multiple options for a cheap PS3

• eBay - snipe one for cheap
• craigslist - this is a good way to find one on the cheap (plus negotiating)
• local Pawn shops - when people need money, electronics are the first to go (they have a wide selection and they negotiate!)

So check these in your area and I'm sure you can find something!

Thanks! That's actually very useful. And I don't have an Xbox(nor do I wanna get one ~_~)

craigslist would be your best option as there are too many people needlessly raising the prices on ebay (and people using sniping programs)
you can always check the buy and sell section here as well http://gbatemp.net/threads/selling-120gb-ps3-psp.346133/#post-4608643

I've had the best luck with Cowboom, personally, although if you've got a spare 2.5" SATA HDD you might be able to find a cheap PS3 on eBay missing the HDD and combine the two.

also i dont know if you want a vita or not but...

UMvC2 was released for vita though i say a ps3 is a more sound purchase at least till vita has a bigger library

There's a guy on another forum selling a PS3 with a disc drive not reading discs for $100 shipped. (Downgradeable one BTW.)

Shoplift the ps3 and don't get caught

These days you only get Super Slims in stores, I wouldn't "Shoplift" that even if I got paid for it.

But what's the problem with the super slims?
