Like the title says, im inbetween a rock and a hard place about the PS3 and E3 coming up. Should I go ahead a buy the $399 80gb or wait till after the first of June, to see what happens at E3?

Not long to wait. Some developments may be announced that you could kick yourself if you buy now. Maybe a price cut.

I'm sure you could force yourself to wait another couple of weeks to see what happens.

It's hard to say before E3 on what will happen at E3 so just have to wait it out and see what happens. For all we know Sony may not even do anything special or maybe they will. Just wait till after E3 and then just make your decision if you want a PS3 then or wait if Sony might do a price cut or maybe come out with a very nice bundle set. Anything before E3 is basically rumors or maybe hints.

if it was ME.......i would wait.

E3 is usually full of surprises and by waiting 2-3 weeks you have a CHANCE that you could get
A) a bundle pack not available now but for the same $399 price point
B) a price cut

there are NO FACTS to anything im saying.....just examples of why i would wait.

remember......just cause you havent heard any rumors yet doesnt mean nothing will happen.
not every story comes out pre e3.....feel me.

patience is your best friend here.
2 weeks and you WILL have your ps3......its just a waiting game to see if you can get more 'bang for your buck' and that, to me, is worth the wait
