I have found some very good deals inside the Amazon Gold Box in the past. Great service.

The OP said it will be listed on Wednesday so check this link on that day.

I'll be looking forward to this although my Amazon card has been taking a beating lately with all the good blus coming out.

Yeah, I was wondering about the deal description... possibly just sent out via email? I figured subscribing to the RSS feed would be enough to get all this stuff lol.

i doubt a ps3 will be included, maybe only w/ a game, or w/ a blu-ray and remote. after teh debacle that was blu-ray day, i'd say don't get your hopes up, expect old as shit titles
