Sony will turn your PSN trophies into (a little) real cash
Seems like Sony is throwing a bone to game completionists. The Sony Rewards program will now award points to use in the PSN store for silver, gold and platinum trophies. Not by much, mind you, but isn't it nice to see your hard work (minorly) rewarded?
Buy a Sony HDTV with a Sony Card, get a free Sony PS3
If you haven't made the transition into the exciting world of high definition television, then it's time to get your act together. It's the aughts, people -- they're practically handing the things out with deluxe car washes at the Stop N' Go. However, If you're holding out for a nice deal before making your first step into the realm of HD, we humbly direct your attention to Sony's website, where they are currently offering a free PS3 with the purchase of a selection of SXRD and BRAVIA HDTV models.Not so fast, buckaroo. Unsurprisingly, there are some stipulations to the deal. To get the offer, you must first apply and be approved for a Sony Visa, then use said Visa to buy one of the TV's on Sony Rewards. Deals like these are always less attractive when plastic gets involved, but we're of the mind that if you're going to drop a few Benjamins on a new TV, then a free PS3 is a welcome bargain. This deal ends on New Years Eve, though, so the time to apply is ... yesterday.(Via Engadget)
Sony offering free PlayStation 3 with HDTV purchase
That's right, babies. We've seen Sony play this hand in other parts of our great big world, and now the S-gang is bringing this sweet bacon on home... er, to the States. According to a promotion we've caught wind of, if you get yourself approved for the Sony Visa, then promptly purchase a Sony HDTV at the Sony Rewards store (out of a pool of models from the BRAVIA and SXRD lines), the good folks at Sony will throw a free PlayStation 3 your way. Of course, there's a few hoops you have to jump through, the deal ends on December 31st, and obviously you'll need a half-decent credit score, but if the suits approve your transaction, this is a pretty solid deal.
