Walk off your Turkey Dinner with Black Friday Shopping
Posted by Tim Bender // Senior Vice President of Sales

I’m going to kick this off by introducing myself to all of you since I’m a relatively new addition to the PlayStation team. I’m Tim Bender the new head of sales at SCEA and I’m thrilled to be joining the company at such an exciting time and even more excited to be sharing with you some of the enticing deals we’ve got planned this Friday.

While recent sales momentum is proving that PS3 on its own is a deal many of you could not pass up, we’ve been working hard with our retail partners to offer incomparable incentives and value options this holiday. This Friday, across many of your favorite local retailers, you’ll be able to find the new 120GB PS3 system packaged with a selection of this season’s hottest games, and in some cases, the latest Blu-ray movie releases.

Keep in mind, the deals listed below are just the tip of the iceberg. Make sure to look in your Thursday papers to find other great deals from local favorites like Fry’s, Hastings Entertainment, Nebraska Furniture Mart, Game Crazy, hhgregg, BrandsMart, Meijer and Shopko.

Amazon: 120GB PS3 system inFAMOUS and Killzone 2 for $299 and $10 Amazon promotional credit

Best Buy: 120GB PS3 system with LittleBigPlanet: Game of the Year and Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time $299

GameStop: 120GB PS3 system with God of War Collection (1 & 2) and LittleBigPlanet: Game of the Year $299

Sony Style: 120GB PS3 system with UNCHARTED: Drake’s Fortune and inFAMOUS $299

Walmart: 120GB PS3 system with inFAMOUS and Batman Arkham Asylum, plus the Dark Knight Blu-ray Disc Movie $299

Last year Jeff invited you to update the group on additional deals you found throughout the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. We invite you to do the same again this year; we’ll be leaving this post front and center through Saturday. If you find something good – share with the group!

I hope we’ve packed some good deals in that’ll make it worth leaving the confines of your home to brave the elements—and parking lots.

Happy shopping and Turkey day,
Tim Bender

Walmart wins.

I hope they have more than 3 per store though...

alkalinesi · 11-26-2009, 02:23 AM

sucks i already have those games. would be great if they just offered any game.

KingBing · 11-26-2009, 02:28 AM

Good move for Sony, im sure these will sell like hot cakes

PS3-Playb3yond · 11-26-2009, 02:42 AM

Either going to get it from GameStop or Best Buy. I wonder what kind of deal hhgregg will have.

Petra_Kalbrain · 11-26-2009, 02:44 AM

DAMN!!! If I lived in the U.S. I'd be all over that Gamestop deal!

I've been considering a second PS3 already. Add the $160 value of the two games and I'd be very happy. I already plan on buying the God Of War Collection if I don't get it for Christmas and I would give the LBP:GOTY to my best friend that just got his PS3. But, alas... nothing like that here in Canada until Dec 26th.

Yea..if I was in the market for a PS3 bundle, I would jump all over the Wal-mart deal. 2 great games and a great movie!

Rblu-Dblu · 11-26-2009, 02:57 AM

I'd go for the Amazon deal simply because it would be a war zone trying to get that Walmart bundle.

CYMBOL · 11-26-2009, 04:19 AM

Strange to offer LBP and God of War in a pack together.

Some cool deals there.

Wow. Nice marketing move, Sony.

Barnolde · 11-26-2009, 03:34 PM

No wonder why Sony didn't do an official bundle.

All these are awesome, but Walmart is just slightly more awesome.

Gamers that love variety?

*raises hand*

And families. I'm sure there's plenty of parents here that still play mature games.

The only official bundle that's coming up is the FFXIII 250 GB Lightning Edition PS3.
