QUOTE(wintzen @ Jan 16 2009, 07:50 AM) @vermins i think rm1599 would be applicable to all sony shops, but to be on the safe side, visit the ones in either klcc, times square or the curve as these are i think company owned stores. reason i am saying this is, i asked about installment plan in sony the gardens, and they said will charge extra, where else i know that sony klcc is 0% plan. my guess is apart from these 3, the rest are more like franchise outlets. i bought my ps3 at sonystyle klcc with 12 month instalment plan...no extra charges.

QUOTE(Berserker @ Jan 16 2009, 01:59 PM) Received my PS3 set from Sony Style last week. Although they sent me the Ninja Gaiden instead of Assassin Creeds, but still it's a good game. Bro, how much for that package that you bought at Sony style. I am going to Sony style to get one as well but not sure which package to choose.

Cost less than 20 USD now.  Added on January 16, 2009, 5:46 pmQUOTE(pakcikkantin @ Jan 16 2009, 02:39 PM) Adusss, how come you can get the Fallout set. Asked Sony Style, all Fallout 3 sold out. Jealous... jealous I ordered the PS3 package immediately on the day I received their email newsletter for the year end promotion. That's why I got this set. You can order but have to wait for sony style to restock the fallout package. This post has been edited by Berserker: Jan 16 2009, 05:46 PM

OT:
Haha when I read the 1st page until this page I feel like I have to write my humble opinion in relation of the current PS3 price in Malaysia.
I remember last time I argued with my cousin from Singapore said that PS3 is very cheap even he as a 7-11 cashier could also afford to buy it( price about SD 869) then he laugh at me coz cannot afford to buy the console even though I work as an engineer.I had explain to him that the ps3 yet to launch at Malaysia unlike Sg'pore and some more the shopowner need to order from the overseas country like US plus the transportation and custom fee which make the console cost 2 times of its original price.Well he didn't believe it coz of his shortminded brain. I also remember last time when I follow my friend to buy PS3 at the local gameshop.When the shop owner told that the price for US PS3 80G worth about RM2700+, I was shocked at that time and my leg stumbled to the ground with my heart saying "wait until I become a manager probably then I could buy a PS3".
Eventhough later on PS3 came out with a 40g asia vers. with average price of RM1300+ we still facing with the warranty problem.However when I planned to buy the 40g si'pore ver. they already sold out abut however I still brought my 1st PS3 but from my friend with rm1000 onlly(coz it is a 2nd hand).
After Sony launched their PS3 in Malaysia, I found it quite normal for you all to discussed on the price of 80g PS3 with the price of less than RM2000 and heck with special package also still below RM2000.I am not spamming on this thread but just want us to share about how thankful we are for the launching.Imagine that if Sony yet to launched the PS3 in Malaysia,I wonder that Fallout package price probaly already reached RM3000.Oh and probably PS3 not sells at Sony Style shop and we have to buy from the normal gameshop which we have to be careful because some of the shop always cheat on their customer.Rightnow I have sold my 2nd hand PS3 to my big bro (coz he wanted to play MGS4 very badly) with only RM500 and planning to buy the Malaysian vr. regardless normal or special package. coz price still stick below RM2000.
Well, I'm not saying that I am a Sony fanboy and we should very thankful to Sony for launching their PS3 in Malaysia, but just to share for us to let us remember back our hard time to own a PS3 during previous days.
You may continue your discussion.Mod may delete this post if consider harm to other forumer.

I got my PS3 from sonystyle KLCC with 0% installment at RM1899, and chose Warhawk and Fallout3. And this was after considerable deliberation between getting the 360 or PS3. Well, I've made my choice, and haven't looked back since  - no regrets! Well, just a little bit cuz Left 4 Dead looks awesome  Love the PS3 for the gaming + movie (xvid + x264) capabilities. Gonna mod to a bigger HD soon as I'm running out of space. LOL! Those that are wondering what to do, where to buy, I'd recommend the 0% installment plan. You really can't beat that.

Kinda remind me of my old 40g ps3.That is also reason for me to buy ps3 jus to watch xvid mp4 in konsol.Sum more you can manage the movie's file names and folder unlike the "other console"(Tutorial thanks to samurai20).
