CompUSA: Buy 40″ HDTV, Reserve A PS3

Fry’s Electronics PlayStation 3 Bundle. Cheap at $1079.

Wal-Mart “Customer’s Choice” PlayStation 3 Bundle. A steal at $1491.

CompUSA Screwjob PlayStation 3 Bundle? A minimum of $2300. Oh, the pain.

Found via blog Uninnovate (but scooped by the Cheap Ass Gamer forums), the current promotion running at CompUSA demands that, if you want to buy a PS3 from the retailer, you’ll need to invest in a Sony branded HDTV, 40-inches or bigger.

Also, according to Uninnovate, should you return the TV you “must also return the PlayStation 3 and pay a 15% restocking fee”. I can’t imagine anyone having a problem with that. You guys cool?

Major Wii Update(Part1)

Welcome to the Wii Update, that states the newest facts on Wii. After a long off-season, I have progressively made this article during that time. Before I begin, I have a brief announcement: Since the Wii release date is soon upon us, we will only update information on Wii and NOT DS. Now, lets begin. The Wii SD Card will be used for putting your photos on the Wii Photo Channel by putting them on the SD Card and putting it into the SD Slot. Remember that Mystery Flap. Well now the Mystery Flap no longer remains unknown: Under it is the Wii SD Slot. You can also put photos on the SD Card and on your Wii. The Wii Component Cables are used for… what else? Hooking the system up, of course! They are nothing less than cables, so let’s move on. The Adapters are for connecting to Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection for online play. You can either use the Wireless Adapter which you put into an wall outlet and your Wii or you could choose the LAN Adapter, which you put into your Router and your Wii. The SD Card is now available at Best Buy for $39.99 and the Adapter’s and Component Cables come in the box with the system. That’s basically the Cable’s and Wires Part. Now let’s move on to launch titles.

As you heard above, Nintendo will offer Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection at a low, low price: Free!Well talk more about that later. Also featuring only play, the Wii will have something called Channels. These Channels vary from Web Browsing to playing with characters of yourself. There are 12 channels( only8 are known) and you will be able to have them all at launch on your Wii. The channels are as followedDisc Channel, Shop Channel, Internet Channel, Forecast Channel, Mii Channel, Photo Channel, News Channel, and Virtual Console. For more info visit http://us.wii.com/. Now we will go
more in depth of these channels.

Don’t:

* Allow little chilluns form a line near you for their turn

Do:

* Try to handle the Wiimote with arms relaxed at your sides
* Be patient with it — there is definitely a learning curve!

* Sit on nearby little chilluns if no sofa is available

Keep in mind.. I didn’t think of the name. This is more than just about gaming. If you’re here for horrible games such as Halo and Grand Theft Auto, go somewhere else.
