Beginning this week, customers who purchase a 40GB PS3 in-store will receive The Legend of Zorro on Blu-ray disc at no additional cost.

The PS3 has held strong sales in the U.S. following the Blu-ray disc format’s victory over Toshiba Corp.’s HD DVD.

Sales for the 80GB PS3 SKU spiked last week at Amazon.com after the item was restocked for customers.

Although under heavy fire, HD DVD still manages to serve heavy punches. What do you say about it’s last offer: $80 for  X-Box 360 HD DVD player and 6 HD DVD movie titles?

We wrote already about add-on for X-Box 360 game console in HD FAQ and basically it is an external unit capable of reading HD DVD media. The best thing about it and the very reason why this is the most popular X-Box accessory is in it’s interface – it uses USB port which allows you to connect it not only to X-Box, but to PC and Mac and use it as a much cheaper substitute for internal HD DVD unit.

Heavy blows done by it rival, the Blu-ray disc, caused huge decrease in the prices for this product. So, in short time interval we have witnessed 199, 179 and 129  dollar offers and now the price is just $79,99 for the unit plus 6 HD DVD movies, which is a real bargain.

Unfortunately, this offer is no longer active since they are sold out, but I believe that we will soon see many more interesting offers with “Wow” prices.
