PS3 slim consoles have become one of the most popular video games in the market. Not only are they designed for children and teens of all ages, but adults in their 30s and 40s also enjoy the experience of the overall features of the PlayStation3 console.

The standard PS3 deal used to go for a hefty USD 400. This being a big drain on the pocket, many enthusiasts used to look for cheap PS3 consoles at their nearest pawn shop. The systems that are bought in the pawn shops are often times brand new. However, you can go for a PS3 bundle that includes an 80GB PS3 bundled with Metal Gear Solid 4 and Killzone 2 – two of the most popular games available for it. In fact this is the best PS3 bundle and you can purchase it for the standard PS3 price of USD 400.

If you and your friends are keen enthusiasts of this product, you all can go for the complete PS3 packages that include:

• A Console with 40GB Hard Disk Drive
• 2x Wireless Controller DualShock 3
• 3x random games
• Blu-ray/DVD/CD player
• AV multi-out, Digital optical, HDMI
• 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p Resolutions

… and much more. This, of course, comes at a much more heftier tag of USD 599.99. The complete package is also available for the lovers of this product in the United Kingdom. Just type PS3uk in any search window and go for it.
